Who Needs Two?

Internet Puts a Sugarcoat on Scalping:
"But wait — isn’t this what we used to call, you know, scalping? And isn’t it supposed to be disreputable, unseemly and maybe even illegal? As recently as 2002, Greg Aiello, the longtime public relations guy for the National Football League, said of the growing Internet resale market: “We view it as unethical and in some cases against the law. It suggests a desire to profit personally and perhaps illegally on the coattails of either the N.F.L. or the team.”
If we could just ignore that pesky "supply and demand" thing, life could be SO sweet!
