I have heard of graphine but they've given a Nobel prize for it. To an Englishman no less.

I have to leave that comment but I've just googled him and he's Russian-born Dutch. LOL. Wiki here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Geim).

I do like the Ig Nobels. I hear a little of 'em in podcasts and stuff.
