In this recently run classic [column](http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/612/could-visitors-once-go-into-the-statue-of-libertys-arm) the question “Could you go into the Statue of Liberty’s arm” was answered in 1987 by the Perfect Master, “Once but not any more.” Thanks to our modern technical age, the answer is now, “Yes, virtually.” – [Web cams](http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Latest-News-Wires/2011/1028/Statue-of-Liberty-accessorized-Live-web-cams-offer-new-harbor-views) installed in the arm are going live [today](http://www.earthcam.com/usa/newyork/statueofliberty/). Will wonders never cease.
