The Minnesota planinng agency officially disappears today (WEDNESDAY). The agency provides policymakers information to help them position Minnesota for the future. Most of its functions will be transfered to the Department of Administration. Jack Uldrich was the director of the planning agency during the Ventura administration. Uldrich is still thinking about what's next for Minnesota, and he's written a book called "The Next Big Thing is Really Small." The book is about nanotechnology, and how it could change our lives and our businesses. Nanotechnology deals with materials that, when reduced to an incredibly small size, turn out to have surprising strength as well as special qualities. Many scientists believe we're close to achieving this revolutionary step in technology. Author Jack Uldrich explains.
