And not by Joe Schmoe who it would make sense to ignore, but by Svante Arrhenius.

For others that are unaware of who this is, first paragraph from his wikipedia page:

> Svante August Arrhenius (19 February 1859 – 2 October 1927) was a Swedish scientist. Originally a physicist, but often referred to as a chemist, Arrhenius was one of the founders of the science of physical chemistry. He received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1903, becoming the first Swedish Nobel laureate. In 1905, he became director of the Nobel Institute, where he remained until his death.
