"If it's the Nobel Committee they'll leave a message." But they'd better text as well.

I wouldn't be surprised if a number of awardees find out through journalists and then have to go back through their ignored messages or Spam folder.

Maybe the committee doesn't like calling people and is hoping they won't answer.

"Hey, this is Bob from the Nobel Committee, if you could give us a call back, that'd be great. It's important."
