Alright... this is a complete f-ing joke. Blackburn, Greider and Szostak won for the discovery of how chromosomes are protected by telomeres and the enzyme telomerase. Jesus... who DIDN'T understand how chromosomes are protected by telomeres and the enzyme telomerase, that's what I want to know! Why don't we just give out a physics award to someone who discovered Gravity... my two year old nephew knows how chromosomes are protected by telomeres and the enzyme telomerase.
I'm telling you, people need to get outraged about something other than Obama... it's the entire Nobel system people... it's just a freaking popularity contest these days. Just a popularity contest.
