Being irrelevant made it relevant. Not fitting-in was what made stuff and people fit-in. Take for example the cat who kept a bat in the hat to simulate gravity. TO tour the Louvre-perhaps the most encyclopedic of museums-is to witness the unfolding of art history from prehistoric times to the 20th century. To tour my brain-perhaps the most non-encyclopedic of wax museums-is to witness the unfolding of short-term memory from the sixties to just about .... nothing.
