Who is doing well in spite of the economic recession?

If you are a "geek" or curious you might enjoy this.

What industries may be doing well in spite of the recession?

Psychics
Soup
Repossessers
Pawn shops
Gambling
Gold
Used cars
Community colleges
Cycling shops
Used car parts
Recycling centers
Video games
Libraries
Employee outplacement industry
Green energy
Small start up companies
On-line dating
Applications to Divinity schools and seminaries
Door to door cosmetic selling (Mary Kay says they are doing well)

I've kept track of these since the recession got so bad.
The recession is expected to last thru 2009 and into 2010. Hope the "Ecoomimc Stimulus" package works.
