	Yep.  And me being a part of today's youth, I must say I'm enjoying 
every self-indulgent minute of it.  I always go through RS one extra 
time just to look at the ads.  I find them to be quite entertaining.  
	As for RS not paying enough attention to the older bands, well 
maybe some of you have forgotten the half page devoted to the box set 
when it came out.  Or maybe you have forgotten the interview with Pete 
just a little over a year ago.  Every time I go through RS I see 
something relating to the Who.  I admit, there was a catastrophic 
understatement made for LaL but I think for the most part RS is giving us 
a well balanced representation of the music scene most of the time.
