Roger, Marc, and ...

Your argument, that art should survive by itself (Roger) and not by stealing
money (Marc) is pretty well said, but shortsighted. Because you define arts
by $$. 

Hence, no Mozart, no van Gogh, no ... 

And, although not intended by you, it's exactly your attitude which
stabilizes funding finally. So, many thanks for your help.

Fortunately also, there is more than nazis or coke that peoples have to
give, although it's difficult to discover every now and then.
