Art replied "When Alan made the first of these strange objects, he maybe used the formula T = h × b × √(t × e) / c, but I think that it got replaced, when they should have understood:
•     T = Toast quality (crispiness, warmth, satisfaction)
•     h = Heat applied (in joules or toaster setting)
•     b = Bread density (grams per cubic cm)
•     t = Time in seconds
•     e = Efficiency of heat transfer (0–1 scale)
•     c = Crumb coefficient (how much the bread resists burning)
With an interpretation:

•     The more heat and time you apply, the toastier the result—but only if your bread is dense enough and your toaster is efficient.
•     A high crumb coefficient (e.g., fluffy white bread) lowers the final toastiness unless compensated by more heat or time.
•     √(t × e) introduces a nonlinear relationship—just like Einstein loved.
 

Both space and time are critical for the perfect result.

Art was more interested in a formula for horse racing; he noticed his respiration seemed to match the hot horse that he was walking after a race.
