1. Joshua Bell went mostly unnoticed posing as a street performer in the DC metro. I'm not sure whether this says more about the current state of classical music, how we conceive public space today, or the people who live in Washington, but the article is an interesting read.
2. Tyler Cowen points out that Fred Thompson is favored over John McCain for the GOP nomination at Intrade. Maybe Sam Waterson can be his veep.
Check out Audiofile on Salon today. They have a reaction to the article in the Post.
interesting... yes, it seems like this piece has gotten a lot of reaction from all over. it's sort of an odd creature, part reporting but also part experimentation/manipulation. it doesn't seem like the traditonal realm of newspaper.
