It's fascinating that we would see results like that, especially in a country like the United States that is still growing in terms of population size. I almost wonder, if they mapped out the different materials in terms of which ones were shrinking, stagnating, or still growing, if you would be able to separate out the different stages of a nation's economic stability and growth by which materials they choose to use.

Put another way, we may one day look at the relative use of cement versus silicon as a measure of when a country goes from developed to truly first world.
