The Who solidified their place in history when they performed at The Concert For New York , when they blasted all others off the stage that night for fireman , cops , and the rest of us who urgently needed a sense of comfort . If the airlines fueled their planes this way , there would be crashes every week . Wherefore indeed I am exceedingly ashamed , that to spare their money , may indeed have bridled their unchastity , but for the fear of Christ they were not willing to live chastely and with gravity . And those veterans of Vietnam who were never welcomed home with speeches and bands , but who were undefeated in battle and were heroes as surely as any who ever fought in a noble cause , staged their own parade on Constitution Avenue . I was lucky in that my editors did n't want things to be dumbed down ; they assumed their audience to be educated laymen .
