England up by one.

And the winner for literature is: Doris Lessing.

This shouldn't come as a surprise; England does have a history in this kind of thing. Only Economics and Peace to go!

There are rumblings about Al Gore getting the Peace win this year. I'm not sure he's earned it. The guy made a powerpoint presentation into a movie. Yes, by doing so he drastically increased awareness of global warming, but has he actually put forth policies to protect the environment? Well, okay, he has. Still, he hasn't been as proactive about it in recent years as... um... well, hell. Maybe he should get the win. Go Gore. It still feels a little cheap, though. Like Hollywood is getting the Nobel, or something. Doesn't it?
