In 2007 when Gore won the Nobel Peace Prize with his slideshow one of the losers was Irene Sendler. She was a Christian Polish woman who during the war smuggled out about 2500 small Jewish kids out of the Warsaw Ghetto. She kept a jar hidden in her garden with all the kids names in the hope of reuniting them with their parents who were largely in concentration camps in better times. For obvious reasons it was a forlorn hope.
The glass jar or going up against vested interest for the prize?
