The IPCC is the one who started the whole Global Warming shit and are just 1000s of more idiots. Al Gore just so happens to be one in the litter.

The peace prize committee seems to move pretty damned fast compared to that for science. For example, John Hume and David Trimble were awarded nobel peace prizes. However peace in northern ireland hasn't yet been 100% esatablished. The prize for Watson and Crick for discovering the structure of DNA was awarded years after they'd published and put into useful practice their results.

With reference to point 9, about giving people malaria to cure syph. It should be pointed out that whilst malaria is a crippling disease, it's possible to recover from it. Syph on the other hand drives you insane and finally leaves you dead, a problem which is somewhat harder to recover from.

Well, if Yassir Arafat and Al Gore can get themselves a Nobel Prize, when is Ahmadinejad going to have his turn in the spotlight?

Well played, Nobel prize committee. I like the harsh/reverent quality of the statement about no suitable living contenders.

Seriously, were they joking when they gave Gore the Nobel Peace Prize? What the fuck does global warming have to do with peace.

I heard that there is no Nobel prize in mathematics because Nobel's wife had an affair with a mathematician!

Sort of cheapens the award when Al gets one too, Josh. I totally agree.
