@ImprobableResearch apparently , I haven't made my point clear , isn't the Nobel award supposed to be held in sweden? They don't sound Swedish at all , that's why I asked in the first place , and actually the "ig" you're talking so lightly about could be the prevention of lawsuits on copyright infringements :)

@thelegend255 The Nobel Prizes have been, and continue to be, awarded in Sweden. The Ig Nobel Prizes have always been awarded in Cambridge, Massachusetts. These two award ceremonies are not the same thing.

[thelegend255]

are these THE Nobel Awards that are supposedly held in Sweden? or is this an American award that's just named Nobel?

@thelegend255 Ah, what a difference an "Ig" makes.

Alfred nobel invented dynamite.. Maybe he had to do something peaceful so he didn't feel so bad about himself;-)
