The Nobel Prize committee phoned up very early in the morning, as they always do. |
| 00:10 → 00:17 |
I was giving a talk in Cambridge, Massachusetts, at MIT, |
| 00:17 → 00:26 |
so I was at a hotel and they called up and told me that I was going to share the Nobel Prize... |
| 00:26 → 00:34 |
...with Sidney Altman from Yale University, who had done independent work in the same area. |
| 00:35 → 00:42 |
They also suggested that maybe I would be skeptical, that this was really the Nobel Prize... |
| 00:42 → 00:47 |
...maybe it would be a some kind of joke or prank, so thet had a friend of mine... |
| 00:47 → 00:52 |
...from Sweden to get on the phone and assure me that this was an authentic phone call. |
| 00:52 → 00:57 |
But frankly, it would have been very difficult for this to have been a joke, |
| 00:57 → 01:02 |
because as soon as I put down the phone, the newspaper reporters started immediately... |
| 01:02 → 01:04 |
...phoning up the hotel room. |
| 01:04 → 01:07 |
So it would have had to have been a very elaborate prank. |
