Now according to "Einstein's Philosophy", Relativity is

"..relationships of observable
 behavior to environmental stimuli."

that would be the sitting with a pretty girl, and sitting on a stove.


How you behave between sitting on a stove and sitting with a pretty girl.

The "environmental stimuli" would be a stove getting hotter.


In physiology, a stimulus (plural stimuli) is a detectable change in the internal or external environment. 
The ability of an organism or organ to respond to external stimuli is called sensitivity. 
When a stimulus is applied to a sensory receptor, it normally elicits or influences a reflex via stimulus transduction.

Relativity is "Einstein's Philosophy".
