Now, Marie, obviously you didn't get the memo.  The rules have been changed 
again.  Just like how you count unemployment, the rules on when it is a 
depression have changed!  It is only 15 months since it was officially 
declared a recession.  It was changed to over 18 months.  We got too close 
to that, so they've changed it to over two years.

Lynda, whose little corner of the world is actually at almost 22%, not 20%.
