Twin Paradox
In February 2007 a Louisiana State University (LSU) press release asserted that Kak had "resolved the twin paradox".

Famous quotes containing the words twin and/or paradox:
“We live under continual threat of two equally fearful, but seemingly opposed, destinies: unremitting banality and inconceivable terror. It is fantasy, served out in large rations by the popular arts, which allows most people to cope with these twin specters.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“When a paradox is widely believed, it is no longer recognized as a paradox.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
