A treasure trove of entertaining, accessible short articles by physicist
John G. Cramer on various hard science topics (usually with a speculative
spin) is now available at

http://www.npl.washington.edu/AV/av_index_sub.html

Cramer is best known as the creator of the transactional model of quantum
theory, which John Gribbin recently tipped as his bet for best current QT
model. (I like it because it ties past, present and future together in a
vast web of handshaking, a sort of spacetime geodesic dome...)

An early essay (1989) reports on the first Nano conference, and is spot-on.

Good reading, folks!
