What amazes me is that it's the second time it's been stolen in ten years. It feels like they just recovered it from the first time. Maybe it's the "Scream Movies" that made it so popular. This would be much cooler if the thieves had worn scream masks.

] OSLO, Norway (CNN) -- Armed robbers Sunday stole two
] paintings by Edvard Munch, including "The Scream," as
] aghast museum-goers watched.
]
] Authorities found the getaway car and the frames that the
] paintings had been held in, and are using video footage
] of the robbery in an effort to track down the thieves,
] police said.

While I truly hate this painting, it sucks for the museum to lose such a large exibit.
