Who is the world's CURRENT greatest thinker/philosopher?


Answer
By current I understand you to mean alive and active in 2011.

Here is a list of five. In each case I've attached to the name the title and date of a book they've written within this millennum. The order is simply the order in which they pop int my head and has no other significance!

John Searle, Mind (2004)
Timothy Williamson, The Philosophy of Philosophy (2007)
Marilyn McCord Adams, Christ and Horrors (2006)
Matthew McGrath, Pragmatic Encroachment (2009)
Joshua Greene, The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Truth Abut Morality (2002)

I'll give you a link, below, to Greene's article -- actually (despite that over-the-top title) his dissertation.

What is the world's smallest river?




Stacey R


I just saw that the world's smallest river is Roe river in montana with a length of 61 m. I looked it up in google maps also. How can a river be so small, I mean where does it get its water from all round the year?


Answer
The Roe River is recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's shortest river. The Roe flows 200 feet between Giant Springs and the Missouri River near Great Falls. The Roe River competes with the D River in Lincoln City, Oregon for the title of the shortest river. Both rivers have been measured on different occasions, with lengths varying from 58 feet to 200 feet. Schoolchildren in Great Falls campaigned successfully to have the Roe River placed in the Guinness Book of World Records. The source of the Roe River, Giant Springs, is the largest freshwater spring in the United States.
the smallest river in the world is the River Roe
