My favorite Nobel fact: Bronx High School of Science has 8 laureates. That puts is tied for 23rd place, right alongside the country of Spain. A high school. Amazing hotbed of talent.

Methinks there might be some bias here. I'm not saying Sweden isn't awesome, but the fact that they are so high on the list while also being the home of the committee members (for 5 prizes) is suspicious.
