Here's the blog post https://improbable.com/2026/03/10/the-ig-nobel-prize-ceremon... > Abrahams explains: “The city of Zurich and its institutions rapidly moved mountains (only metaphorically — in Switzerland it is illegal to physically move mountains) and committed to make this possible. Switzerland has nurtured many unexpected good things — Albert Einstein’s physics, the world economy, and the cuckoo clock leap to mind — and is again helping the world appreciate improbable people and ideas.” I would like to point out the cuckoo clocks originate from the Black Forest in southwestern Germany - not Switzerland https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuckoo_clock |
