Will the Gas Mask Bra Save Lives?

[ccharles000]

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (Oct. 2) -- Red alert! Red alert! Some dastardly group has unleashed a deadly gas! Quick, ladies! Undo your bras!

If a doctor who accepted an award at Harvard University on Thursday night had her way, women would go braless as soon as a city was struck by a radioactive bomb or anthrax attack, so that they could use their intimate apparel as a gas mask.

Elena Bodnar, a Ukrainian cardiologist, came to the most prestigious university in America to accept one of its least prestigious honors -- the Ig Nobel.

Every October, shortly before the Nobel Prizes are awarded, Harvard student groups spoof the world's most esteemed honor with their own ceremony. It's a wild evening where genuine Nobel laureates, esteemed researchers and self-described geeks sing, dance and throw paper airplanes in celebration of some of the world's least important -- and most amusing -- academic achievements.
