Okay, no fortune involved, as far as I know, anyhow, but today, I am famous! I am on the front page of the NCSA webpage, ORNL in the news page (if you don't look at it today, you can search the archives for May 5, 2006), and the article is on HPC Wire.
It has to do with the research I did for my Ph.D., concerning ill-posed problems and optimization. I feel kind of bashful but pleased to be getting so much recognition. In fact, someone from a different division e-mailed me and asked me if I could talk with him about my research, because he's trying to solve ill-posed global optimization problems!
