Jill Duman My 14-year-old has discovered the Who, courtesy of the television show “CSI.” From her iTunes playlist comes the question written by Roger Daltrey and put to music by Pete Townshend way back in 1978. Whoooo are you? Who? Who? Who? Who? It's a reasonable inquiry for a new generation of teens trying to figure out their place in the universe. But as double-digit unemployment and...

Nowadays, when an act can be hyped up and inspire a backlash within a six month cycle, it's a less a "Where Are They Now?" and more of a "What Are They Up To?"

In the five years since Jackson flashed America, fines have been levied, speech and expression censored and decisions rendered by all sorts of judicial bodies, including the Supreme Court.
