It turns out that the author of my favorite column in the Boston Globe Magazine is married to the guy who invented the Ig Nobel prizes. They must have very interesting conversations at their dinner table. Anyway, I was reading Miss Conduct's blog, to follow up on something she wrote in this week's column regarding her husband, and found this link very funny and interesting.
Another link about the origins of the prize.
I admit it, when I read the descriptions of some of these research projects, I do think "how fun!"
Here's the link to the item that originally piqued my interest.
