I sat here wondering why people in general have so many problems with devices that run on moving electrons.. then it hit me.. it is 'us' as a societies fault. We don't teach usefull info in school.. ( ok.. some...usefull info.. like reading and writing and basic math ).. but no 'good stuff'.

A few years back, my day job looked like it was going to go "TU" and I started getting prepaired to teach electronics at my old high school. I had heard my old electronics teacher was retireing, and i had spoken to the administration years ago about getting in there and carrying the torch so to speak. Imagine my surprise when I was told that the class was being discontinued when he retired?!?!

That's why the average american can't even put batteries in the correct direction in a tv remote.

I used to work in an electronics repair shop. As a tech.. i filled out a form, stating what the problem was. A few of us techs used codes such as:

DEU or DUI, or TSTU

The sales people were used to seeing abreviations on the repair sheets that they didn't understand.. they always assumed it was some electronics lingo for a technical part that was replaced. Occasionally a customer would question what the referenced part was. Imagine the look on the boss's face when told that :

DEU = Defective End USer

DUI = Defective User Interface

TSTU = Too stupid to use

I had many device sent in for repair that simply had batteries in backwards, or that worked 100% and the user was simply unable to operate the device due to?? a bad case of knuckle dragging or years of partying and low brain cell population... or some other such mental condition...
