I am writing to all of you because science in America can use a boost, =nd young people can certainly use role models. If you are on this =articular email list, you are 1) one the world's great scientists =Kahneman, Gell-mann, etc.; 2) a pioneer in computation, software, the =nternet (Gates, Page, Zuckerberg); 3) a major player in the avant grade =rt world (Prada, Hoffmann, Elkann, Obrist). So, if you take the time to =rite a response, your participation will be noticed: the Question has a =ide international readership and receives intense press attention, =hich is nearly unanimously "over the top". (See: =ttp://www.edge.org/edge-in-the-news) Here is the link to the Question (Important - please read the =editorial marching orders" before sitting down to write). URL: http://edge.org/annual-question/q2013 User: Edge_Question PW: 2013 [To date:] George Dyson, Daniel Goleman, Max Tegmark, Gary Marcus, Roger =ighfield, Douglas Rushkoff, Michael Shermer, David Christian, Juan =nriquez, Peter Woit, Nicholas Humphrey, Charles Seife, Aubrey De Grey, =cott Atran, Clifford Pickover, Mary Catherine Bateson, Colin Tudge, =oger Schank, Steven Pinker, Howard Gardner, Daniel C. Dennett We worry because we are built to anticipate the future. Nothing can stop =s from worrying, but science can teach us how to worry better, and when =o stop worrying. EFTA_R1_01727114 EFTA02563769 WHAT SHOULD WE BE WORRIED ABOUT? Tell us something that worries you (for scientific reasons►, but doesn't =eem to be on the popular radar yet—and why it should be. Or tell us =omething that you have stopped worrying about, even if others do, and =hy it should be taken off the radar. DEADLINE FOR ESSAYS: S PM, Thursday, January 10th PUBLICATION DATE: 12am EST, Sunday, January 13th You know what to do. And if you aren't into responding, but happen to be the CEO, Chairman, =ounder, of say, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Twitter, consider =etting behind publication of the 2013 Question on Sunday, January 13th =hich we are billing as "World Question Day" (a link from your search =age would be helpful and interesting). Or if you're interested in the =rts, you might be interested in the plan for a Serpentine Gallery/Edge =ollaboration in building a significant arts institution in Silicon =alley. This project is spearheaded by Hans Ulrich Obrist, Co-Director =f the Serpentine Gallery, who is considered to be the leading art =urator in the world. Interested? Let me know. Finally, spend New Year Eve watching the videos, published today, of =ared Diamond talking about his 41 trips to New Guinea ("TALES FROM THE =ORLD BEFORE YESTERDAY" http://www.edge.org/) Have a Edgy New Year!!
