understanding of nearly every other galaxy relies on the our understanding of
our own Galactic ISM, and is exactly this understanding that often forms the
nuts and bolts of more ambitious calculations. We still have much to learn
about the ISM, however, principally how stars form, how elemental abundances
correspond to our understanding of stellar evolution, and whether or not our
Galaxy continues to grow its ISM by accreting gas. Intense effort in the
future will concentrate on solving such problems.
