I sometimes forget that is in short supply because I work in one of the few places that still does provide apprenticeships. And just up the road from my workplace they provide ongoing training. One is land equipments and the other is air. Ahh! you meant technical competence in general.

Not that I'd be capable of any level of assistance, probably - I'd mess it up along with the rest of us. Anyway, fingers crossed that your lights are fixed and we can all sleep easy until the next crisis ::) Well, designing and building Spitfires required technical intelligence and competence, of a kind that seems in short supply ever since so many people were told to go and get degrees rather than work at apprenticeships and actually learn how to do something useful, but I suppose it only takes a few people to do the really clever stuff and the rest just need to bash bits of metal together and screw in screws.

Yes I am still waiting… although the second person to turn up was very thorough even down to insisting on finding some filler to fix a hole by the light fitting!

In response to question 2 I would say that ‘we are’ de-evolving nowadays.

You will have to explain question 1 I am not quite following that thought…
