Don't ask, A fellow who works at my place got a on line company called dust cap to come to his house and change a wheel for him that had a flat.When I asked him about it before hand he said he didn't know how to do it or where the spear wheel was kept.

Its getting to be a very ''must have it now'' civilization we are all living in, as stated by others in their replies, but who do you go to to get your stuff done 'NOW' when there's no one left to do it !!
This also brings into play the ability to 'recycle' stuff. Recycling is a big thing these days but it takes vision to be able to 'repurpose' an item along with a basic knowledge of how things function. Unless younger people take an interest in the world around us they will never have the vision or knowledge.
Is this just the outlook in this country or is it a worldwide problem?

I know.......I'm just a grumpy whinging old git, so I'll go and crawl back under my pile of old crap whence I came from

 There are plenty of young people in third world country's that know how to recycle,repair,and reuse things.Its us in the west that think everything is disposable.
