You'd be surprised with the kind of people who are into model building or might be creative. I've lived and worked in many areas of the US. The vast majority of Americans (both blue and white collar) aren't even remotely creative. Netflix, Youtube, and Facebook have done a great job lobotomizing most Americans.

Add smart phones to the list. No one talks at my work, we all sit staring at our phones. I watch tank videos, but I'm a bit of a loner and don't get bothered much.

At work I over hear some of the younger people talk non-stop about some games they play. They have created a network amongst themselves that's well structured. I suppose it keeps them out of the bars.

Do you mean that they are actually conversing with each other rather texting..?

Remember when you had to arrange for someone else to talk to the girls relatives to set up a proper introduction so that talking could be allowed later (with a chaperone of course ...)
Sending a conversation request the old fashioned, analogue, way ...

I'm so glad I don't have one of those things. Remember when you could have a conversation without having to send a friend request?

Me, no, more like waiting for my sisters to get off the rotary dial lead weight phone.

My proposal to my first wife was under the T-Tail of a C-5 Galaxy (1st divorce), the second wife I had to repeat my proposal as there was an airplane flying overhead during the first try (2nd divorce), and the third wife I proposed near the local airport (ok so far). Does that mean I should stay away from aircraft??

My first date with my wife was in the turret if an M60A1 tank (she wanted to see what the inside of a tank looked like). Two months later, I proposed to her outside the Motor Pool. We’ve been married 43 years. See, you just used the wrong equipment! Boy is this off topic now. Maybe it’s time to fold this one up and put it away?

Not very likely to happen, Russ. Myself and several others have repeatedly tried "to fold 'this one' up and put it away"- To NO avail. Some people just HAVE "to keep beating a dead horse"...

Maybe the industry is just following their customers ...
My wife certainly has an opinion about my hobby
