    Because science can be funny as well as thoughtful.

    Please explain the people in silver holding the flashlights. I'm sure it's something very clever.

    This will be online exactly as I go to bed. Please tell me it will remain or be uploaded when I return.

    I believe it should remain, and if not, we will definitely upload it after the fact as we have the other ceremonies.

    The Ceremony starts at about 48 min. from the start of the very pixelated event.

    Free advice for next year: please get a video editor and make the uploaded event watchable...

    If the universe is male and it wore the dress, then it would be cross-dressing.

    At first, I thought the empty chair represented the 2009 Nobel Laureate for Peace, Barack Obama!

    I had bigger problems looking at the male version. Where was the V-chip man when someone decided to put him in tight fitting speedos?

    Great show and interesting show though, when it finally began, not speaking of the male human flashlight here ;-)
