I heard about that. What's with the deal with all of these inanimate object or a collective winning prizes all of a sudden? I mean, I remember a few years ago TIME's Person of the Year went to "You," and now all of a sudden a collection of data is being nominated the world Peace Prize. I think it's just a dumb cover-up for a lack of actual candidates and most likely just an attempt to get more interest in it. I mean, Obama last year? Really? |

Well, they've given the 'peace' prize to a terrorist before, so this is hardly unprecedented. |

Yea. The Nobel has gone straight to hell for pretty much anything. |
