>I know you (and the rest of us) realize that $10k in 1978 dollars is more
like $30k in Y2K dollars.

My first Saab cost 8K
(It was a leftover)
My second 16K
(Brand new, I should have tried to scroom down more)
My third looks like it will be 32K. Still in progress.

So, it seems that every time I buy a car, the price doubles.

> if someone knows more precisely how much inflation we have had in the
last 22 years, please chime in.

A quick search using:
inflation+historical

I didn't know that there was such a thing as inflation in 1264 AD.
The US data only goes to 1720.
