Grains, what Do We Know?

Abstract

This talk is an attempt to summarize the questions on which we think we know the answers and the questions on which we should like to have the answers, all in the area of interstellar grains. The review is personal, i.e., biased and incomplete. I cannot possibly compete with the review on grains over the past three years with 150 references, just written by John Mathis as chapter IV of the report of IAU Commission 34, although even that is admittedly incomplete.
