Everybody that doesn’t have one wants one and would pay Just about any price to get one. Dancing styles have changed dras- tically. No longer do people go to discos and try to Imitate John Travolta; now all you have to do is go out on a street comer somewhere to see the latest dancing craze • Breakdancing.

No. we are not at a live concert, we are in front of our own T V. watching MTV or Friday Night Videos.” We are watching more T.V. than ever before - an average of four hours a day. We have gone from bicycles to three or four wheelers The trails are full of kids muddin.’ Stamp collecting has changed to video games As- troids and Space Invaders led the field.
