Actually, Woodstock was *extremely* important. If Alger Hiss hadn't owned and used a Woodstock typewriter to copy State Department papers, he never would have been exposed as a spy. And without the Hiss Affair, Richard Milhouse Nixon never would have become Vice President -- or President. If Richard Milhouse Nixon hadn't become president, there would have been no Watergate. Had there been no Watergate, Gerald Ford never would have become President. If Gerald Ford had never become President, nobody ever would have heard of Chevy Chase. And late twentieth century American culture would have been that much the poorer.

Yes, Woodstock was *very very important.*

I could live without everything except the first one. I could have gotten it out of Hess anyway though. Al Capone had the right idea. Nothing a good set of vice grips and a blow torch couldn't handle. :p
