Norm, We as humans should be getting smarter but seems in the last 20+yrs our schools with all the parents interference are dumbing down the next generation. Serious the government just a test on students 8th graders couldn't even read on a 3rd grade level and the math skills were even worse, barely a 2nd grade level. They tried blaming it on the Covid-19 affecting teaching level. Now they are considering holding back the ones that can't until bring their grades up to the class they are in.
Most operators of new equipment just throws away the instructions and depends on someone else to show to use the equipment.
I had one customer last week that couldn't start his riding mower. Guess what the battery wasn't even connected.
At least it wasn't connected backwards.
