So what's the difference between a depression and a really long recession?

I think it comes down to whether you want to take a big *gulp* before you say the word. [g]

Of course, there are articles about how this differs from the Great Depression. Such as:

Where I work we know things are *still* pretty bad out there; and this is the DC area, very recession resistant!!

Well, that does put it in perspective. Still, it ain't over til it's over. I'm personally waiting for Round 2...or more specifically, for when the recession really hits up here.
