Never was a "Hippy," if you define Hippy as having long hair (many didn't), turned on to drugs (not all did) and believed in "Free" love. If you define Hippy as being able to think for myself, having an inquisitive, open mind and being sceptical about policians and how accurate the news is as it's reported, then I was a "Hippy" and hope that I always will be. I WAS at the first Woodstock, but didn't overdose on drugs or have wild sex in a Volkswagon bus with a fifteen year old runaway. I actually came to hear the music.

Now that we've all gotten older and most of us are broader of beam, I suspect many of us have gotten a little "hippier."
