Are those classes actually not offered anymore in schools you know of ? In my high school the auto shop was connected to the wood shop which was connected to the computer lab. We had a house building program and civics is a requirement. Shit in grade 8 this one girl started a fire in our science lab, and in grade 10 some guy almost burned down the auto shop. The tech hall ( where me and mine hung out ) stunk for weeks.

That surprises me but it also surprised KB to hear that I actually had a a full hand drafting course when I studied to be an Architectural Technician before I ever touched AutoCAD so maybe schools just different here.
