An extremely Nobel* gesture (*sic)
From the BBC Website
Quote:
Russia's richest man has revealed that he bought US scientist James Watson's Nobel Prize gold medal, and intends to return it to him.
Steel and telecoms tycoon Alisher Usmanov said Mr Watson "deserved" the medal, and that he was "distressed" the scientist had felt forced to sell it.

Well played, Mr Usmanov. What a very kind and thoughtful thing to do.
