FlaSoxxJim Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 It's IgNobel Awards time again, kids! Some good awardees this year, including a team that found a way to put the ol' stinky pinky to work for the benefit of mankind. To Science! Winning research included a U.S. and Israeli team's discovery that hiccups could be cured with a finger up the rectum and a study into why woodpeckers do not get headaches. http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews....ence+NewsNews-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
