Thank you lula for keeping the thread updated. I'm really pleased to see Norman Foster and David Attenborough being named as recipients, they are both incredible men and thoroughly deserve this award.

I thought awarding Berlin the prize was an interesting choice, like many others no doubt I had forgotten that this year would mark 20 years since the fall of the Wall. It seems hard to imagine a time when such a major European city was dvided in such a way.
