That article made me sad. I hope I might have been one who stopped to listen, but who can say for sure? And perhaps even worse, I have never even heard of Joshua Bell. The music was beautiful.

All this proves is that people don't like to be bothered on their way to work.
After all, people go to subways and train stations - not to loiter- but to go somewhere.
No other conclusions can be proved.
There is a time and a place for everything....
