    This famous actress appeared along what was supposed to be Herny Winkler and suffered from a rather ironic phobia. Her Grandfather also won a Nobel Prize, but what I want to know is: Who is the actress, what is her phobia, and what Nobel Prize did her Grandfather win?

    Question #67503. Asked by Flynn_17. (Jun 27 06 8:20 AM)

    		Olivia Newton-John's grandfather was Born in 1970. In fact he was Born all his life as he was the physicist Max Born.
    It was Max Born who came up with the probabilistic interpretation of quantum physics that prompted Einstein to write that famous letter to him stating that God didn't play dice.
    Getting "physical" won him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1954.

    I can only guess that Henry Winkler was touted for Danny's part in "Grease" at one time and I have no idea about her phobia. Is she scared of grease?

    		You've got two out of three right there, GMack, and you are right about Henry Winkler being touted for the role of Danny Zucco. He actually turned it down. But one of the scenes in the film was ironic due to her phobia. Anyone for Olivia Newton-John's phobia?
