Was that last question intended for the current game (#226)? If so, ask it again there and I'll answer it.

Alright, was this person's first Nobel Prize awarded after 1945?
Good job at asking this question so precisely.

Congratulations! John Bardeen, the winner of more Nobel Prizes in Physics than anyone else, is correct!
And also the inventor of the transistor, without which we would not be playing this game. Or doing much of anything.

I'll have another game up shortly.

I like seeing the 20 questions games come around on my forum feed, but I do dislike that I'll have to get smart and win one of these to be the QM.
Eh, just start playing and guessing! Some people win their first game pretty quickly.

Since you won't answer my Question 20 immediately (and since I have to log off for a while), I hope you won't mind me using one of the five post-Q20 guesses now:

John Bardeen, winner of TWO Nobel Prizes in Physics, 1956, 1972.
Eh, we'll just skip ahead to that point and give it to you.

Congratulations! John Bardeen, the winner of more Nobel Prizes in Physics than anyone else, is correct!

I will wait a little bit to allow more free guesses to come in, and then answer this.
