Well, Ken, you have been the, uh, you've been the quiet one this time around.
59:19
That makes a great sniper.
59:23
Thank you.
59:23
Thank you.
59:25
I'm always looking for an opening, looking for the headshot, but you know, guys, I mean, this is interesting as we talk about all these things that are going on.
59:35
So the old person in me, I'm, I'm above 60 and I know I don't look at thanks, but But anytime.
59:42
But but I am 70 is 70 years old is in range.
60:44
I'd love for my daughter to be able to experience God's creation in a state that isn't absolutely screwed.
19:26
Why is that the case?
19:29
Yeah, well, I suppose it partly boils down to money.
19:35
Art is mostly treated as a luxury, and therefore you kind of have to have more money than you need to think that you want to spend it.
19:42
I mean, that's very crudely put, but I think that's probably... bears up to some investigation.
19:47
So until, you know, the church does most of the commissioning of art up until, say, the 18th century, then it shifts to merchants.
19:55
And then, of course, the Industrial Revolution means that we get people making lots of money from technology which derives from science.
20:02
So the Carnegies, the Rockefellers, the Thyssen family in Europe.
20:32
Is that the idea of where science as a patron of the arts begins? Is that what's in it for the sciences and scientists?
