In several recent conversations, I’ve been comparing and contrasting the US economy of the #1970s with the US economy of the #2010s and #2020s. I’ve been hitting various places in sort of a scattershot in my quest for 1970s economic data, but now I think I have a base point for most of the data: https://libraryguides.missouri.edu/pricesandwages/1970-1979 [libraryguides missouri edu] the #Missouri University Library 📚 in Columbia, #MO.

Obviously, there will still be more detail available at the Bureau of Labor Statistics

  Stephen Glenn Martin (born August 14, 1945) is an American actor, comedian, writer, producer, and musician. Over his distinguished career he has earned five Grammy Awards, a Primetime Emmy Award, and was awarded an Honorary Academy Award at the Academy's 5th Annual Governors Awards in 2013. Among many honors, he has received the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, the Kennedy Center Honors, and an AFI Life Achievement Award. In 2004, Comedy Central ranked Martin at sixth place in a list of the 100 greatest stand-up comics.Martin came to public notice in the 1960s as a writer for The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, and later as a frequent host on Saturday Night Live. In the 1970s, Martin performed his offbeat, absurdist comedy routines before packed houses on national tours. Since the 1980s, having branched away from comedy, Martin has become a successful actor, starring in such films as The Jerk (1979), Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid (1982), The Man with Two Brains (1983), Three Amigos, Little Shop of Horrors (both 1986), Roxanne, Planes, Trains and Automobiles (both 1987), Dirty...

I do like most of their songs ( #KRTH now plays #1970s, #1980s, #1990s in place of their former #1950s, #1960s, and early 1970s music ).

I have noticed in the last few years that a lot of it no longer evokes the same strong emotions that it once did.

Last night after work, I stopped to do laundry. The laundromat had a radio playing. #KRTH-101 used to be oldies from the late #1950s through the #1960s to the early #1970s (since they changed to that format around 1974), so I was very surprised when everything I heard appeared to be from the late 1970s through the #1980s to early #1990s.

I liked the music, but it wasn't the K-Earth I used to listen to. It felt like the old K-Earth was lost.
