Because it's Italy...... Seriously, if you go to the URL, it explains it all. (It's in protest to budget cuts to arts and culture programming.)

Well Frank, your first statement is probably more accurate - LOL! We always say: T.I.I. to answer questions like this... stands for: THIS IS ITALY!

Well... ummm... that's my first day in Rome so hopefully it doesn't extend past that day because I wasn't planning on visiting museums (at least, I've been "talked" out of it on this board). Crossing fingers at least. Largo Argentina and Pantheon aren't considered museums right??
