It was the Ig Nobel Awards making news -- NOT the Nobel Prize! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ig_Nobel_Prize http://www.vnunet.com/vnunet/news/2227524/ig-nobel-2008-awards-announced American scientists from the University of Puerto Rico, The Fertility Centers of New England, Boston University School of Medicine and Harvard Medical School shared the chemistry prize.
