A decade or more? Really? I honestly think that we're going to see a U shaped recovery as the amount of people who want to get out and do things is increasing every day.

I feel like this thread and the arguments contained in it are a microcosm of what's going on in the world at large right now, and also explains why people were so slow to respond. Perfect is the enemy of good, after all.
