PS, absolutely, and better yet only 3 days a week to buy any gas by the odd/even system. Plus we were all going down with Global Cooling, the Ice Age is coming.
And pollution was toxic that I remember (much lead and truly toxic). Just gasoline had a major lead conent.
And the Cold War was going to kill us all, and Rachael Carson assuring us the natural world was dead, and Paul Erlich with his population explosion theories. They were truly spooky and caused a lot of paranoia.
I bet Rachael and Paul didn't suffer with their theories, and lived quite well afterward!
