Unlike many recent airliner crashes--most notably the crash of TWA Flight 800 four years ago last month--investigators seem likely to find a cause for the Concorde crash quickly. Both black boxes were recovered, and the wealth of witnesses should make it easy to reconstruct the plane's final moments. Just what went wrong with the left-side engines remains a mystery for now. Authorities will seriously look into the possibility that a blown tire on takeoff sent scrap rubber screaming into the engine inlets, triggering a fire. In 1981 the National Transportation Safety Board in the U.S. warned...

And the hotel owner in Kimmswick told us of the town's plan to re-enact the Civil War battle even though, he conceded, it was "just a skirmish...

...Greenland is smaller than it looks. And, thanks to advances in digital photocartography, you can be too. Or bigger. Or whatever. While the rest of the world is using scanners and code to make two dimensions look like three, to rotate molecular models, conduct on-line house-tours and reconstruct mid-air collisions, artists Lilla LoCurto and Bill Outcault have flipped things around: what would three dimensions look like if we wanted to make them only...
