You are very mistaken in your statement regarding kids not building 
things.  They're not building ham radio, that's for sure.  But find any 
maker faire and you will be stunned by the age and ability of the kids 
demonstrating their projects.  Maker Faires (Their preferred spelling it 
seems) would be a great place to communicate ham radio to the younger 
generation. Arduino and Raspberry PI have enormous followings by 
teenagers and even a lot of pre-teens. Don't write them off! Our 
community has done a poor job of out reach to the teens of today.
