Well, not to sound sarcastic but, I have hear 4'33" every 4 minutes and 33
seconds that I'm walking to class or walking out to my car in the parking
lot or what have you.  I even can hear 4'33" while I'm heading to the lobby
for some Reese's.  Why should I have to sit and watch some "perfformers"
when I can hear the piece on my way to the snack-bar or anywhere else for
that matter.  Remember, 4'33" streeses the music which is all around us,
all the time.  Why not have a Butterfinger and enjoy the music even more?
