They would meet at Albert’s apartment,

           where discussions started with math and
           physics. Soon talks expanded to cover other

           things. Maurice Solovine, for example,
           introduced many philosophical topics, which

           Albert found fascinating. The Olympia Academy
           lasted for only two years, since Habicht and

           Solovine had both moved out of  Bern by
           1905. But the three men would remain

           friends for the rest of  their lives. Perhaps
           more importantly, Albert claimed in the years

           ahead that his discussions with the Academy
           helped to form many of the ideas that would

           lead him to change the world.
               Another important development in Albert’s

           life as a scientist was that, around this time, he
           began to write and publish scientific papers.
