He won for this comment:

Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns - the ones we don't know we don't know

aren't we proud of him?????: :LOL you've gotta laugh,,,,,

Not eloquent, but he is paraphrasing a well known thought.

Of course, what it could possibly have to do with *anything* is beyond me.

I can't believe that is the most obscure thing he has said though, lol

During the BBC thing they all sounded very amused.
