Pearls before swine

The washington post did a little stunt where they put one of the finest young classical violin players in the world, playing his Stradivarius violin, out in a Metro station to see if anyone would care.

Nope. He played for 45 minutes. A couple of people stopped to listen. He got $32 in donations.

$32 in donations … in the case that carries his $3.5M violin.

Sigh.
