I must have glossed over it as I don't even remember it. I only look at certain things in the mag anyway.

Maybe his membership with AMA was purely incidental. He probably belonged to AARP too...who knows what else...

Status: offline 		There are little nuggets of interesting information hidden away in Model Aviation. If I were running public relations for the AMA and working to promote knowledge and acceptance of model aviation to the general community, I probably, with the member's consent, would have sent out a press release.

The new Aeromodeller has a good coverage of the FAI Junior World Free Flight Championships. The USA team got Silver.

Dunno about AARP, but he is a member of National Active and Retired Federal Employees (NARFE), AARP's counterpart for those in working in the government sector. NARFE granted Dr. Wineland a Life membership in the Association in recognition of his achievement, joining more than 50 other current or former federal employees that have been awarded a Nobel Prize since 1901.

At least it was not a bogus political Nobel prize as presented in 2002, 2007, and 2009.
