7. Really bad comparison (not your fault, though)
in 1941 a war was getting cranked up & we were coming out of a depression which had involved a lot of malnutrition. There was still food rationing during the war. You could argue we're in the same situation now, but up till 2001 we had been pretty prosperous, and it takes a little while for that sort of thing to catch up with body size.
