>>What does it cost us as a society when a generation loses those skills?
This. This is a lot to do with today's society. We don't seem to appreciate the problem at all. People just think that they can throw some money at someone and get the things repaired and so they don't need to learn anything.
Society as a whole may have to bear a huge cost, and by the time they realize this they might have already lost their time.
Manufacturers are a lot to blame but today's lifestyle of "it's just a matter of few bucks, so why waster time?" is also to blame.
