Pearls before Breakfast - facinating article

My daughter turned me onto this wonderful article in the Washington Post.

Joshua Bell played a concert in a Washington D.C. subway station at rush hour. Pretty much no one noticed.

The article is so well written and the story is so interesting it just has to be shared.

I would like to think that I would notice that the world's greatest living violinist was giving a concert in a subway station while I was racing to a meeting. Part of me says I would have noticed, stopped and appreciated because I appreciate beauty and music and I try to notice my surroundings. But part of me says that I would have barely noticed and would have kept walking, like the vast majority. Pretty sad. Guess that is just one more thing I need to improve on.
