				You guys remember the Rolling Stones had a concert at Altamont Speedway in the late 60's and a Hells Angel guy killed someone in the audience.  Its been in the news lately and they just closed the case last week.  Anyhow this is what is going on now at the speedway.  This was an auto I attended last year.

				Nothing like TV and Hollywood suggest.  It was the epitome of paradox; incredible amounts of optomism and independent thinking counterbalanced with massive doses of conflict and violence.  As with most time periods, it was what  the individual made of it.  Stephen King gave some parts of it fair play in his novel, Hearts in Atlantis .
