Accusation of stealing the discovery, January 2013

I think this should go to the main page: Did David Wineland and Serge Haroche Steal Idea For The Nobel Physics Prize? http://newsblaze.com/story/20130112074228nnnn.nb/topstory.html 46.59.74.15 (talk) 01:14, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This input about Dr. Omerbashich's claim was removed by some obnoxious self-styled "editor" (just another user but who has an agenda). It's a perfectly legit claim put forward by a scientist. Science is changed by insightful individuals, not by hordes otherwise there would be no Nobel Prize at all:

In January 2013, accusations were made against Wineland and Haroche for stealing the idea that brought them the Nobel Prize. Crown Prince of Bosnia, who is a scientist himself, offered proof to the Nobel Committee and police that he submitted the now rewarded discovery to Wineland and NIST for verification back in 2008: Did David Wineland and Serge Haroche Steal Idea For The Nobel Physics Prize? 23.25.135.9 (talk) 17:43, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
