What a summer for remembrances. Forty years ago, a couple of people landed on the moon, and a half-million of them landed on Max Yasker's farm in upstate New York for the Woodstock festival. That might sound like ancient history, but of course without the space program, who knows where the technology industry would be today. The people who propelled the industry in its early years, and even today, were largely of the Woodstock generation. Hold those thoughts. Closer to home, this year also marks the first decade of the "Cluetrain" world.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but Yasgur was spelled Y-a-s-g-u-r, not Y-a-s-k-e-r. Having been there at the time, I happen to know. Also, the hyperlink to Ten Years After is to Wikipedia, which states it has no information. Ten Years After was a rock group, whose driving force was Alvin Lee, singer/guitarist/songwriter, an act at Woodstock. I should think a professional journalist would avoid these mistakes.
