This was written by Abbas Raza, editor at 3quarksdaily.com. It first appeared in 2005, but just came to my attention. I couldn't find it in the archives, so I assume many here have not read it either. Most of you will probably not learn anything new from this, but it is beautifully written and worth a few minutes.

Enjoy.
