True enough. But was it our intention to not have those things out of a sense of conservation? I think if we had had disposable diapers and large screen televisions available to us, we would have probably jumped at them. But a little austerity would be really nice right now. I just don't see it aside from a few lightbulbs and Priuses. Still getting what you had when we were really wasteful is hardly austerity.
