If Only it'd Come to the US

BBCnews is carrying this article on the "IgNobel tour":

To mark National Science Week, past winners of the most infamous prize in academia are touring the country to explain, among other things, the logic of making locusts watch repeated highlights of Star Wars and how ostriches fancy humans.

Yup, you read right. Star wars watching grasshoppers. You'll be surprised at the reason.

Well, the awards ceremony itself is held in Boston... but it would be the nice to tour the US, I suppose.
