I forgot to mention that like someone else said, you can learn A LOT just from reading magazines, even the ads sometimes. I don't think I would have gotten into all this mechanical stuff like FIRST if it wasn't for magazines like Four Wheeler and R/C Car Action.
That brings up another thing, R/C cars can teach you soooo much about all sorts of different things by building them and tuning them.
Another great way to learn is to just spend an hour every now and then looking at exploded views and diagrams of mechanical assemblies.
