Do you know what are the IG Nobel prizes?

as they say on theier site "Every Ig Nobel Prize winner has done something that first makes people LAUGH, then makes them THINK"..."The Igs are intended to celebrate the unusual, honor the imaginative -- and spur people's interest in science, medicine, and technology."

its fun and interesting to see what people out there are researching and developing, here are some of the 2004 winners:

LITERATURE
The American Nudist Research Library of Kissimmee, Florida, USA, for preserving nudist history so that everyone can see it.

PEACE
Daisuke Inoue of Hyogo, Japan, for inventing karaoke, thereby providing an entirely new way for people to learn to tolerate each other.

whats you favourite IG Nobel Prize winner?
