Kenneth,

The National Bureau of Economic Research decided that a recession started in March of 2001, and that makes it official.

nber.org

"The NBER does not define a recession in terms of two consecutive quarters of decline in real GNP. Rather, a recession is a period of significant decline in total output, income, employment, and trade, usually lasting from six months to a year, and marked by widespread contractions in many sectors of the economy."
