Good help! Thanks, LMom!

Yes, we should definitely compare engineering notes. Have you discovered "How It's Made" on the Science Channel yet? DS7 LOVED that show for a while. He could talk for hours about how golf balls and streetlights were made. laugh It's boring as sin to a non-engineer, but DS7 and DH (the engineer) could watch it for hours almost without blinking! LOL!

Of course, "Mythbusters" on the Discovery Channel is also great, even for me. I love those nerds! grin

Have you given your DS broken appliances and let him tear them apart to see the inside? That's always a hit for engineer-y kids. My dad used to take two broken appliances, crack them open, and create one that worked. A skill I wish I had...
