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%.

The NYT does good maps. Using this one you can see where the recession
is bad (and where the depression has started):
