Anyone know a kid who "tinkers" with electronics, builds his own
stuff, _even_ from kits?

Not personally, but I'm sure they're out there.

Even MIT now calls the department "Electrical Engineering and Computer
Science".

Same at OSU these days; they merged a couple of years ago.

I'm of the old school... I wouldn't allow calculators until college,
and no simulators until senior year ;-)

That strikes me as a little overly draconian, but I take your point. :-)
