Hurrah! Common sense rules in one small part of the world
Art
A 16-year-old commented on the behaviour of the crowd milling around a painting of Picasso at the New York Museum of Modern Art. “Why take photos of the painting rather than look at the painting itself?”
As her father noted, "Capturing the experience has become more important than the experience itself."

Perhaps that is why there is now a Museum of Selfies. Where? On Holywood Boulevard, of course.
