Let's give credit where credit is due.
Due to exposure like Make magazine and such, electronic hobbyism
seems to be on the rise, a welcome change after its massive decline
over the past 10-15 years. Kudos to Radio Shack for recognizing this.
Make magazine has helped a great deal. To see the influence at work,
particularly if you're a Doctor Who fan, look at
http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2010/01/letters_we_get_letters_1.html
and the link off of that to

which proves that the younger generation (younger than me, at least) is
still interested in electronic hobbyism.
Full disclosure: that's my daughter's project. And I didn't help her
with the Dalek, that's all her work.
