And if you also accounted for inflation over 20-30 years (just look at how much 1 gallon of gas or loaf of bread cost in the 80s and compare with today) and I could even venture to say it might even be "cheaper" in AC today with everything factored in.--just my IMO of course.

You took the words out of my mouth....definite argument that it could be considered cheaper now then (not that i was there back then)
