(who had invented modern plywood) started a "torpedo" works.

Nobel prize:
The erroneous publication in 1888 of a premature obituary of Nobel by a French newspaper,
condemning him for his invention of dynamite, is said to have brought about his decision to
leave a better legacy after his death.
The obituary stated Le marchand de la mort est mort ("The merchant of death is dead")
and went on to say, "Dr. Alfred Nobel, who became rich by finding ways to kill more
people faster than ever before, died yesterday”.
On November 27, 1895, at the Swedish-Norwegian Club in Paris, Nobel signed his
last will and testament and set aside the bulk of his estate to establish the Nobel Prizes,
to be awarded annually without distinction of nationality.
He left 31 million kronor (4,223,500 USD1896~103,931,888 USD2007) to fund the prizes.
Prize categories:
1. Physical science,
2. Chemistry,
