Did you know?
Did you know...... that on November 27 is the birthday of the Nobel Prize? Alfred Nobel, inventor of dynamite, established the Nobel Prizes in 1895. The first such prizes were awarded in 1901. Nobel's last will left approximately 94% of his worth to the establishment of five prizes (physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature, and peace) to "those who, during the preceding year, shall have conferred the greatest benefit on mankind."
