Do you believe the numbers about how the average workweek has gotten shorter over the past 100 years?

Table 2 and 3 in the article below contain info like what I'm talking about.

I generally consider myself a pro-capitalist rational optimist, but we are a lot richer than we were 100 years ago, and my workweek is still 50+ hours a week. I wonder when we will get those 10 hour workweeks...
