[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Hi Crew, I'm going to ask my usual question when I see a statement that doesn't include an answer, as in "WHY?" Even though the gentleman in question isn't the leader of my country, I reserve the right to ask this question as it's a topic of discussion. Simply because Wayne Torry made this comment....>> "The current recipient is hopeless"<< Throughout my life I've always felt Nobel prize winner folks were the brighter humanoids of Earth's creatures. So due to this being an international group and learning what we do of each other, our countries and Leaders through the List and international media I'm sure many of us foreigners would appreciate an answer to the comment..> "The current recipient is hopeless!" It may not be of photographic nature? But I didn't start it! Anyone??? Like "Why is this recipient seen as hopeless?" A response if you please. Thank you.
