I would love for CRTs to be manufactured again, but that instutitional knowledge is probably long gone, as is the equipment that produced it.. so making them again would, probably, be a trillion dollar ordeal.
I think there was an art exhibit or something where they manufactured some new CRT TVs a couple years ago so apparently it's doable on the small scale. Biggest problem is the current economy especially in the US simply couldn't support small scale manufacturers like that long term.
