I was combing through the interwebs for the lowdown on this whole

"Poincaré on Mass-Energy Equivalence". Then it hit me like a
Mavericks wave - the author was some dude called "P. Moylan"!
It ain't me, babe. Just a coincidence of names.
My uncle is currently trying to organise a Moylan family reunion.
Perhaps I should write to this fellow in Pennsylvania with an invitation.
That reminds me. An AUE regular once asked me whether I was related to
the linguist Séamus Ó Maoláin. I contacted him, and indeed he was from
the same small region that my people came from. So there's probably a
connection, but we could find the missing links. He died three years
ago, so we likely never will.
Moylan is Irish?
Hugh "Blazes" Boylan -- Works as a musical impresario, managing Molly Bloom's upcoming concert tour (which is a pretext for his visit on Bloomsday).
iirc... he is hung like a horse.
