The Nobel Prize of Mathematics, awarded every four years was refused by a
Russian recluse who proved the Poincare conjecture, "topologically, a rabbit
is the same as a sphere." Not a REAL rabbit, mind you, more like a chocolate
rabbit; one with no holes. (Real rabbits have holes, several, as a matter of
fact.)
Grigory Perelman, the winner, will evidently join up with Bobby Fisher to
form a dance team.
