...fighting pollution. Example: the old regulations required Armco to install about $15 million worth of pollution-control equipment at its steel plant in Middletown, Ohio. Under a pilot project for the bubble plan, the company chose instead to spend $4 million to pave parking lots, seed other areas and put in sprinklers that will suppress iron oxide dust. These measures are expected to remove six times as much pollution as the costlier gear would have done...

"People shacking up in tents sunk three feet in the mud, no toilets, peace and love. Backstage I had a couple of cups of fruit juice and found out someone had put acid in it. I wanted to kill him." Onstage The Who sliced through the flower power like a chain saw in a daisy garden, played with an intensity that took the show away from such Mallomar bands as the Jefferson Airplane.
