I Won!
A few days ago I joked about the night I was on call for a university and received a message at 3 a.m. that I had won a Nobel Prize (which, of course, was for a distinguished professor at the university, not silly old me … but that was the way the message was phrased and caused me to giggle).Today, it turns out that Susan Solomon actually did win a Nobel Prize for her work on climate change, along with Al Gore and the UN Panel on which she serves. Again, tis not me … tis the illustrious scientist who shares my name and even once shared her grades with me in college (see my entry on her from way back).
I’m so pleased THAT Susan Solomon has been recognized for her work, She is making an enormous difference on this earth. As for me, well, two almost-Nobels in a lifetime isn’t bad either!
