...appropriate behavior had to be invented. Luckily a leader emerged near the end of Day Two. Using the only lull in a churning 17-minute medley, Sly Stone explained that singing along isn't old-fashioned, that it wouldn't turn the kids into their parents: "You must dig it is not a fashion in the first place. It is a feeling, and if it was good in the past, it's still good." Moments later the entire city of Woodstock was shouting "Hiiii-yer." (See pictures of Poland's woodstock...

...course, is home to Air Force One and the élite fleet of 16 additional executive jets flown by the Air Force's 89th Airlift Wing (there are dozens of other aircraft sometimes used to ferry lawmakers and other VIPs). Hard data on the 89th is tough to dig out and, obviously, both the military and Congress like it that way. The go-to source for public reports on government spending - the Government Accountability Office (GAO) - answers to Congress. "We haven't looked into it in a long time," a GAO spokeswoman says. But the Air Force, after...
