Fascinating Experiment on Art Out of Context
I came across this article via Mir's blog:
I don't know (or even know of) Joshua Bell but I gather from the article that I should have heard of him. My husband immediately recognized the name. Turns out he actually knows him. They've worked together or something.
Anyway, it's a great article and a fascinating experiment. I wonder what I would have done if I had been passing through L'Enfant Plaza while this wildly famous, highly accomplished violinist was playing.
The article also made me homesick. I don't live in the Washington, DC area anymore but I still consider it my hometown. And one of the things I miss most about DC is the Metro. Really and truly.

How is it possible that you miss the METRO out of all the thing in DC to miss?
What about me? I am better than a carpeted mass transit train aren't I?

You are WAY better! Of course I miss you MUCH, MUCH more than the Metro? I wasn't including friends and family in my statement, just aspects of the city itself.
I'm so glad to hear from you. Thanks for stopping by. Drop me a line anytime.
BTW, I enjoy reading your blog. I'm glad to hear of all the good things happening in your life. And, well, I feel your pain on the few bad things.
