math, not so nobel
I heard a pretty interesting story today from my math GSI. She said that there has never been and never will be a Nobel Prize for mathematics. The reason is Nobel found his wife cheating on him with a mathematician. This resulted in him hating all mathematicians.
Historical evidence doesn't support this though because Nobel was never married...
