Elena Bodnar pulled in lots of leads for her Ig Nobel Prize for Public Health. I just discovered one in the National Review.

She even made the fashion news thanks to The StyleList.

In addition to the Canadian Discovery Channel segment, Elena spent Friday talking with reporters in China, Columbia, and other countries that don't start with the letter "C". I'm looking forward to the presentations from Elena and all of this year's winners who will be at Saturday's Informal Lectures.

There is a whole whack of articles being highlighted by Google Canada on the Ig-Nobles. I suspect every major news outlet on the intertubes will be covering it as well as many minor ones.

Indeed. There were 300 hits on "'Bodnar' and 'Ig Nobel'" when we arrived home last night. Twenty-four hours later, there were pretty much 3,000 more. Yowser.

Informal Lectures at MIT in another 11 hours. Whee!
