For the record (I could have sworn I made this point to you before, Vaj), the Ig Nobel is not "for pseudoscience," or not *just* for pseudoscience. Plenty of perfectly legitimate scientific achievements are awarded the Ig Nobel because they're weird in one way or another. Those are covered by the "or should not" part. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Yahoo! Groups gets a make over.
