    I hope J2P doesn't ever get a prize. According to this pamphlet (The Renegade Pope) I read which I found on the ground from some Xian group, J2P worked for the company that manufactured Zyklon-B for use in the Nazi death camps.

        by choice?

        I believe the Jews themselves applaud JP2 for his helping Jews escape/hide in WW2.

          The medicine prize goes to the Brit PC Lauterbury and the American P Mansfield for presenting the basic principles that lead to the development of NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) Tomography for non-destructive 2D-3D inspection of the body, commonly used on the brain.

          I thought the inventors of NMR already got the Chemistry prize? I vaguely remember seing a Nobel Prize poster explaing the principles of NMR hanging at the wall when I was in University.

          I saw a scientific TV program 1-2 years ago where some researcher used NMR to study the bodily processes and organs during intercourse. It was the first time that event had been literally studied on the inside in real time, rather than from outside or in theory. Only one example of NMR , of the more popular kind.

            The physics prize has gone to Ginzburg, Abrikosov and Leggett for their work on superconductivity and superfluidity. I only know Ginzburg, but apparently, they're all theorists.

              Isn't that the third or fourth prize given in the field of superconductivity?

                          Peter Agre and Roderick MacKinnon, two US scientists, have won this year's Nobel prize for chemistry, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said on Wednesday.

                          The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which awards the prestigious prize, said on Wednesday their discoveries of how salts and water are transported in and out of human cells was of "great importance for our understanding of many diseases".

It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

                              That economics prize still not a nobel prize. Oh well, no one seems to care.

                              I guess it's an important methological tool, not very exciting for the wast majority though.

                                No, not really.
