Distinguished Lecture
Thursday, March 15th, 2007Being a Nobel Prize Laureate gives you some advantages. For example, you can be late for your own lecture by half an hour and everybody in the audience will wait. There are even wierder prerogatives: you can, for example, use old-style hand-written slides on ancient projectors that should have retired instead of fancy computerized presentations: still, everybody would listen intently. I did. Yesterday. Together with many mathematicians and academic staff.
