Far as cleanness I wonder if it is just more people picking up after the pigs.

I have proof that memory is not correct. I was sure streets were far cleaner when I was a kid. I knew we had them but I had never seen them. Sixteen mm movies of my family at a park-I was about 4-5. I had not seen them because we never had a 16mm projector. I had them transferred to DVD my parents, my relatives 65 years ago. As far as my memory, that the streets were far cleaner in the old days, you can see trash blowing on the streets.
As a kid, we were just blind to it.
