With the world population about the double of what it was 45 years
ago, I have a hard time believing this statement could be true.
In fact, I trust the absolute number of people performing skilled
work with their hands (surgeons, plumbers, pianists, microwave
engineers (!), you name it...) is greater than ever. Just my
two cents' worth.
Great Heathkit TV, by the way. My only Heathkit experiences
were JK-1022 and IM-17 (you find out what these were).
