Today's totally unnecessary story...



....Comes to us from The New York Times:

As the economic downturn forces consumers to cut back on discretionary spending, laser vision-correction surgeries have been falling — as they did during the last recession.


**Slaps forehead!** Ya think?

Yeah, I guess they're right. I'm not an economist but I would imagine that all discretionary spending is falling off.

Why they chose to focus on laser eye surgery is beyond me.
