What's up? Where
>have all the inventors and gear heads gone?

There was a short note in Scientific American bemoaning the fact
that most radio amateurs these days do not build their own rigs.
Go into a Radio Shack with the parts list from a project in a mag
like Electronics Illustrated from the 60s -- you may not able to
get all the parts!    There's no support for gadget-men these days.

Sure there is Mike,, they're called junkyards or surplus depots or recycling
centers now.
Junkyard Wars and Monster garage are great shows and I've met quite
a few young ladies
that would rather watch that than sports.
 I fell in love with a girl because she loves to build Hotrods
& Harleys from the ground up, she
just swoons when I show up in my grubbies with a rose in one hand and
a toolbox in the other.
