I hear that February 2008 issue of SciAm contains a special report.
Peter Woit has some comment.
I'm gradually finding the links to it, piecemeal.
If anyone finds links to some other main articles in the report "The Future of Physics"
please share them with us. Or, if you want, give us some sample exerpts.

here is something:

The Coming Revolutions in Particle Physics

Plus there are some some sidebars and graphics:

When is the LHC currently slated to switch on, anyhow? http://foraz.web.cern.ch/foraz/schedule.pdf
 
I seem to notice a buildup of papers like this: Detecting single gravitons with quantum sensing. (OK, old one.) Toward graviton detection via photon-graviton quantum state conversion Is this akin to “we’re soon gonna put string theory to the test”, or are these legit? Mind, I’m not expecting anyone to read the papers and explain them to me, but if one of you educated people already have an opinion I’d like to hear it. If not please ignore me. EDIT: I strongly suspect it’s bunk but...
