I don't think it's just young people. Early pandemic life was a step back in time to slower paced, quieter and often richer more fulfilling life. It had a lasting change on me. I'm much more content to stay home and enjoy the simple pleasures of reading the paper and working the crossword, jumble and sudoku with my wife. We eat at home much more often, limit trips to the store. I've experienced lasting changes that I do not intend to reverse.
