We will not try to fathom
this fad any more than we could hula hoops, but those who think they can outlaw ticket scalping may be wasting their time. A hot market for some sensational no-talent (just what we need: a new Britney) combined with the Web makes policing these things impossible. What do four attorneys general propose -- price controls? We're no con-SER-va-tive Gekko Kudlovians but this sort of fist shaking is as useless as controlling gas prices. Better the AGs set their sights on real things -- like crime.
