The encyclopedia of fixing things rests with the YouTube folks to produce videos on how to repair our trailers, brake replacements and install modifications.

I have become inept at reading technical manuals, which used to require a high level reading skills to program avionics equipment. In the 1980s, I zipped through my retraining electronic courses for my fundamentals. The program was based on 60's technology. As I moved onto my new job location, the equipment was being upgraded to new and improved swap- tronics. Each piece of new equipment required a new certification course of instructions. Due to my age mindset of approaching 40, my skills didn't advance as well as I would have liked to keep up.

The bottom line is my father in late 60's, couldn't make the VCR remotes work for him and relied on his kids. Today, I have my kids and grandkids to help us figure out our electronics, because of their unique skill sets to thrive in the current world.
