07: Neilson is at home in Corvallis, Ore., and gets a phone call from a local reporter asking him about his contribution to the IPCC. An e-mail had been sent around my office earlier that day about the prize, but at first, I really didnt put two and two together, says Neilson. Its still a bit of a shock. Its still sinking in.

I couldnt have done it without my colleagues Jim Lenihan, Ray Drapek, Dominique Bachelet (now Director of Climate Change Science at The Nature Conservancy), and many others. We are going to keep going, says Neilson. Our current models [MAPSS and others] are Model Ts; now we want to build Cadillacs.
