...10 Ig Nobel prizes awarded Thursday night for quirky, funny and sometimes legitimate scientific achievements, from the mathematics of wrinkled sheets to U.S. military efforts to make a "gay bomb."
OK, so is a "gay bomb" a bomb that makes those it contacts gay? a bomb that only kills gay people or a bomb that's disguised as a large, vibrating pineapple?
The U.S. Air Force won the Ig Nobel Peace Prize this year for its proposal to develop a "gay bomb" -- a chemical weapon that would make enemy soldiers want to make love with each other, not war with the enemy.

Boy, if this technology really existed it would certainly deepen my fear of, and bring more meaning to the term, dirty bombs.
