EEVblog’s “When I was a boy …”

Chizz points out this installment of the EEVblog wherein David L. Jones presents, in his usual awesomely exuberant style, the story of how he got started with electronics when he was a youngin’. After covering his beloved 200-in-1 lab and more, he goes on to compare his experience what it’s like for kids nowadays who have no need for massive physical datasheet libraries and the like. All in all, it’s a positive and thoroughly enjoyable tale that sheds some much-needed light on the state of hands-on electronics in our culture.
