HO HO HO! now LOOK here what I've found about JUSTINE

Surely it ends 'Cuthbert Dribble and Snot'?

That's my version, anyway.

If you want to harangue Watson do it for his racism and support of eugenics. He's said that if there were a gene for homosexuality and you could do a test he would be in favour of people being able to abort gay foetuses.

what a bizarre list. Justine is winning though .......now where's the competition page? high time i won something.

So funny!

Difficult choice though. I mean how to decide between Justine and Barbara Windsor???? Tough one really. Hmm. Hmm.

Trillian, don't go spoiling my rant there. I knew that, but she was never acknowledged properly for her contributory work anyway.

Voted, she is in the led with 20.77%

it isn't a prominent message: it is at the head of the list of contenders

You can complain that she wasn't given sufficient credit, but she wouldn't have come up with the structure on her own, and she didn't die from lack-of-Nobel-prize.

Justine is at 20% ish now!

I've voted numerous times without that message, Eleison - how is that then?

Crapbarry - sadly I too would be unable to make it, seein' as I'm in the land Down Under :(. Can you leave heckly questions for him to answer? Or prime a co-worker to do it?

definitely Pugh, Pugh... - tell your WRONG friend so on me, Eleison.

Rosalind Franklin died in 1958, Watson and Crick got the Nobel Prize in 1962. She wouldn't have known anything about it, and Nobel Prizes are never awarded posthumously.

I think Pugh Pugh too. The Brothers Pugh.

Just vote Bof - don't overthink it!

HAve just voted. Go Justine!

But there are forty pictures...how does that work? Who is the imposter?

I always thought it was pugh pugh, but then soneone said no, its hugh pugh. I should have had the courage of my convictions. I prefer pugh pugh. Clearly in a small village fire service it is quite likely that brothers will serve together.

Btw, people, you can only vote once. it tells you on subsequwnt votes that your vote has already been counted.

Or the one in the straw hat? Help me!

She's not there, BoF.

However I just found this interesting piece of information:

'"Nork", a 1950s Australian slang term, derives from New South Wales, where the prominent udders on a cow advertised Norco, the North Coast Dairy Co-operative.'

Isn't that informative? Who knew.

There must be a Leona Lewis fan club voting.

as an aside - thumbwitch, James Watson is doing a talk at my work soon, do you want the details so you can harangue him at the end? :o (I can't go, due to childcare, so can't sit and mutter at the back as I initially planned to!)

Listen people - there is a LINK at the bottom of the words, above the poll list, that takes you to mini-biogs of all the contenders. You can read them! They are only one or 2 lines in most cases, just the salient points.

Cicely Saunders set up the first dedicated hospice.

leona lewis has overtaken again. when does the voting close?

it's PUGH, Pugh, Barney Magrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grubb, surely?

I voted for Rosalind Franklin several times, Dame Tanny a few and Millicent Fawcett as well as Justine.

Rosalind Franklin was the one who ACTUALLY discovered the double helix nature of DNA - her x-ray crystallography pics were the clue - but the thieving bastards Watson and Crick (and the other one) didn't give her any credit for it. AND she died at 38 of ovarian cancer, probably brought on by the stress of knowing that she had been ousted from a Nobel prize. No not really - far more likely from all the x-ray crystallography but STILL! Bloody uunjust. Get Dittany on the case. Bloody Men.

That list is the most mental list I have ever seen. Who was Cicely Saunders? Should I know? And who the fuck is Sally Hamwee?

Anyway, am not willing to incur the wrath of Justine who probably has the power to eat our children, so have voted.
