...issue's sheer size. "I realized straight off that if I had to edit 92 pages all at once, I'd burst," he says. So he, deputy chief of reporters ANDREA DORFMAN, and TIME's science staff began working on it nearly a year ago; by last fall their list of the greatest minds of the century had been boiled down to a few dozen names. In November Elmer-DeWitt began handing out writing assignments...

There's some kung fu, a Jafar-style villain with satanic powers, a cartoon menagerie (funny monkey, majestic leopard, etc.), and lame comedy with a crudely drawn, Buddha-shaped fall guy. It's all needless--and harmless.
