The Nobel Peace prize ???
The winners of that are just members of an old boys club. So I don't care a less for that bunch who vote for each other year in and year out.
I'm more interested in VC and MOH winners....they are the real guys who work for peace.

Just a small clarification Wom... One does not win the Medal of Honor (or the Victoria Cross I suppose). One is awarded it.

The recipients of those awards are not playing a game.

Most of the members of those clubs would rather not be members, in all likelihood.

Yeah mate, I know they are awarded it....but "winners" is a sort of loose term us Aussies use for such prestigious medals. It's commonplace for us to refer to a VC recipient as a VC winner. We like to screw around with the old countries language to you know....hee hee
