Just a thought on entertainment: I was not entertained by the walking
tour of the death camp at Dachau, but I was riveted and sobered.  And I
doubt that the people who run places like that, and, say, the Holocaust
Museum, seek to "charm" or "enchant" their audiences.

Wouldn't it be nice if edification was as sought after as
entertainment?  It is, but only at participating outlets.
