important questions
Wow! Take a look at http://www.edge.org/q2002/question.02_index.html
Some of the planet's smartest people ask the hard questions and some try to answer them.
There are many, many brilliant short pieces there. Some of the ones that I thought were more interesting were those by Rafael Núñez, Mark Hurst, Terrence Sejnowski. There are lots of great pieces there (gotta read Martin Rees' piece on many worlds sometime), but I have work to do... so I'll have to read more later.
