An art installation at a British gallery was mistaken for graffiti and removed by city janitors.
James Cauty painted "Portslade Massif" across the window and wall of the Ink-d gallery in Brighton to advertise his upcoming exhibition.
Brighton's City Council said the removal of the writing by its graffiti team was a "genuine mistake."
But gallery director Dan Hipkin questioned that, saying the slogan had been on private property.
Here is a true Nobel Prize Nominee for Science.....
An egghead beat a speeding ticket by proving claims by British police were physically impossible.
Dr. Phillip Tann used a gadget attached to his cellphone to demonstrate that he was not driving 42 mph in a 30-mph zone, but actually just under the speed limit, at 29.177196 mph.
When his lawyers demonstrated the computer scientist's invention, the case was dropped.
"They looked flabbergasted," Tann said. "Police cameras are not 100 percent accurate, but my system is."
