>Cage had a piece that was complete silence for 4 minutes.

This is the funniest thing I have heard in a while.

>The
>family of Cage are suing him for royalties for this 'composition' claiming it
>is a 'quotation' of Cage's piece. I would claim that this is 'traditional
>folk music' ... indeed, silence existed before mankind.
