Lurquer Declines Nobel Nomination
Sadly, because of numerous pending commitments, it had to be done. The following email was sent today, September 11, 2005, to the Nobel Foundation.
UPDATE: The winners all have me to thank....
To the Esteemed Members of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, the Swedish Academy, and the Norwegian Nobel Institute:Stay tuned for further details.
It is with great regret that, for reasons various and sundry, I find that I must decline any potential nomination for the 2005 prize year.
I apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause and wish you all the best of luck in this year's prize awards.
Sincerely,
David L. Hebert

Follow-Up:
They never replied. I have to assume that I was shuffled to the bottom of the stack, rather than have anything official appear on the record...
