Let's see your emails to him - cc the newsgroup. Science is done out
in
the open - nobody is going to beat you out of your Nobel.

AFAIK, Nobel prizes are given for experiments.
George is a theoretician and, as such, cannot receive
a Nobel.

[Hammond]
What about Einstein... he never did any experiments and
he got a Nobel Prize? I think you're mistaken.

I recall that, in first year chemistry, Dr. Jones impressed upon
us that a Nobel prize is for experiments.
However, after a little searching using Google I found this
http://info.ifpan.edu.pl/firststep/criteria.html

And a quote from that site:
[Title:] First Step to Nobel Prize in Physics
Papers should be of regular research character
in physics (physics should dominate in the papers -
that refers to all the recognised competition papers,
not to the awarded papers only). They should
contain new, original and interesting results obtained
by the Author either in theory or in experiment or in
constructing devices (or instruments), the results should
be presented in an appropriate way, characteristic for
research papers. The papers should be ready for
publication without any changes or after minor changes
of editorial character only.

So... it would seem that George Hammond could
win a Nobel Prize in Physics if it is determined that
his paper is worthy.

[Hammond]
Thanks so much. BTW, wher've you been sport.... haven't
heard from you lately. Know anything about Bill Dembski...
he's reading my papers as we speak.... said he'd email me
when he gets through reading them. Dembski has a PhD
in Philosophy among other things. (also a PhD in Math,
and an M. Div. ... the guy's more of a polymath than
I am)

Not exactly a challenging standard of achievement, George.
