    Shouldn't that be changing old for new?

    Despite the cost of living, it's still very popular.

    Yeah electricity was cheaper back then.

    My house was built in 1922, I would think back then a competent person was someone who could get through a day without slipping on the horse sh*t around the nearby farms. None of the buildings have a 90 degree angle in them. Has it really changed so much now ? Or is it just a plot to charge someone to attend courses so you can make money and call them competent?
