The Peace prize drifted in when everyone got all excited about Teddy Roosevelt. who won the peace prize in 1906 to become 'the first American to win ANY Nobel prize.'

allthumbs Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 I fucked up and am not too big a man to admit it. Minx was right with Roosevelt in 1906. What was I thinking? It's this fucking flu, got me all messed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The implications of the Michelson-Morley experiment eventually led Einstein to set the speed of light in a vacuum to be a constant (Special Relativity). the implications for WORLD PEACE are soooooo obvious Thanks to Michelson, and Einstein, and Oppenheimer, and Teller, etc, we have E=mc^2, which has led to the development of 100M ton thermonuclear devices, which has led to our current level of unprecedented WORLD PEACE.

Thank you, thank you, thank you very much. trask, check your facts. i do believe that i stated 1906...which by my way of thinking came prior to 1907 and michelson's nobel prize for physics.
