I am quite convinced from the GIF to ASCII conversion of the
Einstein birthday photograph that it is Einstein and that it is a
T-O-N-G-U-E not a TOUNGE ( a twisted tongue ).
                  ^^^^^^
It is quite clear from the following GIF to ASCII conversion that
the tongue is not twisted but in fact quite straight.

The person who originally requested the picture asked for the GIF of
Einstein's TOUNGE - let us hope that the TONGUE picture is still
acceptable because it is unlikely that a photograph exists of
Einstein's twisted tongue ( TOUNGE ).

Also every time I post this picture I get a stream of requests for
the GIF to ASCII conversion program. It was not me but Sushil who
converted the GIF to ASCII but here is a list of sites where GIF to
ASCII converters can be obtained:
