Winners for the coveted Nobel Prize came out today and gosh..again, those judges gave the salutation of a "laurette" to researchers whose works I have no idea of. In the subject of physics, the researchers were applauded for their works on quarks, arguably the smallest matter in the whole wide universe. But, after reading the word over and over again, I realise that scientists really give funny names to scientific materials. For example, why do they have to call a mole a mole? Does the scientist who gave the name has 6*10to the power of 23 moles on his body?? Highly improbable. Maybe he was a police undercover before? Another impossibility then why the weird names? Next time, the nobel prize would be given out to researchers on "quacks."
