Of course the difference is that one can't quantify art. At least not the same 
say one can quantify a timed race against a stopwatch. 

I guess one could use sale prices in which case Gursky is twenty thousand times 
better than me since he's sold a photo for over four million as opposed to my 
$200 (at least I think it's that amount; it's been so long...).

cheers,
frank

Look at it this way: I'd be pretty damned happy if my photographs were
30% worse than the world's best.
