Wordle Word Art–Vocabulary from Einstein’s Two Letters to Roosevelt on the Atomic Bomb

JF Ptak Science Books LLC

The newest contribution to my new-found category of Found Word Art is constructed from the text of Albert Einstein’s two letters (August 2 1939 and March 7 1940) to President Franklin Roosevelt about the use of the coming atomic weapon.  The text of the letters was simply deposited in the wonder-engine word-atomizer at WORDLE, and the relative distribution of the most commonly-used words were given new representation in relative sizes.  I should point out the earliest post I did on the cautionary letters of Einstein and Szilard to FDR and refer to it for the explanation the occurrences of some of the Wordle words.

If you click on the image it will become larger and clearer.

The complete text of the two letters is found below in the Continue Reading section.
