Article in Scientific American May 2002 on tinkering.

[Noel Page]

Slightly off topic.
Interesting article on death of home brewing one's own equipment.

Heathkit and ham radio is mentioned.

Article in Scientific American, May 2002 on page 26.
"R.I.P. for D.I.Y."

Quote from article (about build your own).
"Evidently the something-for-eveyone model epitomized by Heathkit
and the Amateur Scientist column can't compete anymore."

With other interests and buy it!
