    We will explain the physics of neutrino oscillation, whose discovery has taught us that neutrinos have nonzero masses. Then we will briefly review what has been learned about the neutrinos so far, and identify the major open questions. We will explain why these questions are interesting, and discuss ideas for answering some of the most intriguing ones through future experiments. We will also report several recent experimental surprises which suggest that the neutrino world may be richer than we thought.

    Do all raindrops fall at terminal speed? Recent speed versus size measurements of drops during natural rainfall show that sub-mm raindrops often fall up an order of magnitude faster than expected. Furthermore, images of drop clusters reveal that these ‘‘super-terminal drops’’ are differently sized fragments of a recent break-up, moving with the speed of the parent drop and relaxing towards steady fall. Immediately after breakup, the pieces, disembarking off a common carrier, move at about the same (relatively high) speed. Along with reviewing the physics of drop breakup, I shall discuss possible implications, e.g., disdrometers and Doppler radars.
