Particle Physicists Share the Physics Nobel

somegeekynick writes "The 2008 Nobel Prize in Physics has been jointly awarded to Yoichiro Nambu of the University of Chicago 'for the discovery of the mechanism of spontaneous broken symmetry in subatomic physics,' and Makoto Kobayashi of the KEK lab and Toshihide Maskawa of the Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics, both in Japan, 'for the discovery of the origin of the broken symmetry which predicts the existence of at least three families of quarks in nature.'"

[Am I the only one that thinks] sharing prizes on subatomic particles studies is ironic???

Maybe you are, maybe you are not. We won't know until someone observes your post, thus collapsing the waveform...
