That could have gone into the ideas and possibilities thread and we also have a Nobel Prize thread. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lewd_Squirrel 331 Posted November 2, 2022 True, but he is also known enough, for his own thread. Plus, don't they need their own thread, to get picked, otherwise one gets made for them? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has been on my shadow list this year. A good option for "random old person" when the Committee needs one 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tracy 2,408 Posted November 2, 2022 He's been on my radar, but doesn't strike me as DL-worthy given that he isn't especially famous or known to be ailing. Also, there are a bunch of ancient Nobel laureates out there with no known health problems, so it's probably hard to pick just one of them. Who goes first? Solow? John Goodenough? Yang Chen-Ning? Rudolph A. Marcus? Roger Guillemin? Torsten Wiesel? Esaki? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,951 Posted November 30, 2023 @Lewd_Squirrel, you mentioned Robert Fucking Solow twenty-five times in the last two years. Should I remember you you also created a thread for the man of your dreams? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lewd_Squirrel 331 Posted November 30, 2023 Well, he's old, what do you expect. He'll be 100 next August, and is a Nobel Prize winner. Do you have a problem we me making nominee suggestions? Other make the same amount, or more, for others. And, in 2 year, 25 times isn't that bad. I can do it more, if you insist. Or would you rather I just be your namesake, and act Drol(l)?

Lafaucheuse 4,051 Posted December 21, 2023 Oh, that’s hit 17 for me then ! A sad News, I learned about the Solow Paradox in high school, 10 years ago. I really thought he would have been deserving of his own spot on the list… RIP 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
