This is my favourit part of that article.

But this is a controversial subject.

 

Grubbs' countryman, Eric Cornell, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2001, told Reuters: "I attribute essentially all my success to the very large amount of chocolate that I consume. Personally I feel that milk chocolate makes you stupid… dark chocolate is the way to go. It's one thing if you want a medicine or chemistry Nobel Prize but if you want a physics Nobel Prize it pretty much has got to be dark chocolate."

 

But when More or Less contacted him to elaborate on this comment, he changed his tune.

 

"I deeply regret the rash remarks I made to the media. We scientists should strive to maintain objective neutrality and refrain from declaring our affiliation either with milk chocolate or with dark chocolate," he said.

 

"Now I ask that the media kindly respect my family's privacy in this difficult time."

 

Did he manage to say that with a straight face, I wonder? Lol
