on-topic stuff snipped


I feel sorry for mechanics who have to learn how to diagnose complex
electronics. The initial drop-out rate at the Army electronic repair
school was quite high during the Volts - Amps - Ohms - Watts section.


Now that Radio Shack has crashed, perhaps the defense department should
commission someone to come up with a modern version of the 101-in-1
project kits, and sell them for just enough so that people think they're
worthwhile.
