Post by: Magic on October 15, 2003, 08:10:03 PM

Australians win 2003 Ignobel for Physics for Ergonomics Research!

The award was for a paper titled An Analysis of the Forces Required to Drag Sheep over Various Surfaces (click here (http://www.culvenor.com/) for a copy of this paper).  The work was about the safe design of shearing sheds.
