size=3>For centuries, the pursuit of physics involved acquiring a core tool set
of concepts, mathematics, instrumental know-how, and scientific analytic
abilities. Those tools were mostly used to study profound but seemingly arcane
puzzles about matter and energy. And still are. Yet even as physicists' core
tool set becomes ever more sophisticated, physics today inhabits less of an
ivory tower and more of the messy, real-life world of chemists, biologists, and
engineers. I will share some of my idiosyncratic views of the state of physics
in the early 21st
century.</FONT></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></FONT></FONT></SPAN></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></O:P></SPAN></DIV><SPAN
