As far as obscurity goes, if I didn't need the money, I would turn down a Nobel Peace Prize because I wouldn't want the hassle. And a Nobel Prize wouldn't even make me all that famous.
Heck! If I thought anybody would know who I was, I wouldn't post.
Without googling, how many can name the recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009?
