a rock music festival that drew hundreds of thousands of young people to a dairy farm in white lake, new york, over the weekend came to an end today. admittedly, there was marijuana as well as music at the rock festival, but there was also no rioting. what did not happen at that dairy farm is possibly more significant than what did happen. these long-haired, mostly white kids in their blue jeans and sandals were no an arcists looking for trouble. they were very polite. they emptied their shelves for kids. merchants were stunned by their politeness. while such a spectacle may never happen again, it has recorded the growing proportions of this youthful culture in the mind of adult america. whenever you see a phenomena, especially if you re living in it at the time, you tend to think, that s the arrival. this is the dawning and the start of something new. unfortunately, woodstock just marked the end of it.
