Just when you thought it was safe to turn on the TV and avoid the Baby Boomer financial planning advertisements (cf., Easy Rider selling Ameriprise), along comes the 40th anniversary of Woodstock. I was a baby when this occurred— and I have never met anyone who was there— so my only knowledge of it comes from movies, newspaper articles, and other media that have documented the event.
