Oh, so that's the difference between you and me. I see.

The bears carry the burden of proof right now, imo. Open a newspaper, turn on a computer, it's right there in black and white - the economy is growing like stink. And that's in nominal dollars. In periods of deflation, GNP growth in nominal dollars understates actual growth measured in real (inflation-adjusted, or in this case deflation-adjusted) dollars. 5% nominal growth plus 2% deflation equals 7% real growth. There's something to chew on.
