Life is complicated and the stakes are high, so thoughtful and passionate people have lots of arguments.

The long-term estimated death toll from the 1984 Bhopal disaster in India is about 16,000 people, making it the worst human-caused environmental disaster in history.
In the high-tech society we strive to be, it is essential that we learn the causes of disasters so that we can correct our mistakes. Technology lessens many of life’s risks, but handled badly it can add other serious risks.

It has a tormented genius, Friedrich Nietzsche, already recognized as one of the great minds of his generation, but forced to retire early for health problems. Living an itinerant life wandering Europe on a meager pension, he nonetheless working vigorously on his iconoclastic philosophy, to culminate in a work he suggested would be his greatest. But he collapses on the streets of Turin -- only 44 years old -- losing his mental faculties and most of his grip on reality. It's speculated that he caught syphilis from consorting with prostitutes, but more likely he has a slow-developing brain tumor. Nonetheless, the damaged philosopher is confined to an institution for the last decade of his life. But what of his final work, the unfinished manuscript he'd been working on -- maybe his magnum opus? What would be its fate?
