Interesting thing is that in that link they mention Adolfo Perez Esquivel as a guy who truly deserves it, and I never liked him to much, I even went to a couple of speeches He gave in the University of La Plata and I really disliked him, but I can not say why it was more a gut feeling than an intellectual reason, but I think I felt his discourse was very one-sided and for that reason I always felt his prize was not very deserving <g>.
