“I Know She Invented Fire, but What Has She Done Recently?” or “I Have Come to Praise Ch., not Bury Her!” or On the Second Renaissance of Charm Physics

D0 oscillations, for which the B factories have found strong evidence, provide a new stage for our search for New Physics in heavy flavour dynamics. While the theoretical verdict on the observed values of xD and yD is ambiguous – they could be fully generated by SM dynamics, yet could contain also a sizable contribution from New Physics – such oscillations can enhance the observability of CP violation driven by New Physics. After emphasizing the unique role of charm among up-type quarks, I sketch the CP phenomenology for partial widths and final state distributions.
