Incorporating Twitter, Facebook and e-mail, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) and the National Economic Council recently launched a program dubbed “Grand Challenges of the 21st Century,” which aims to solicit the knowledge and future-thinking ways of the public.

Of course, some ideas are more practical than others: “Solar-powered Star Trek replicators to feed the world.”
I can back that one.
