A while back, I referred to an article I'd written on what I considered the
top ten myths in technical communication. (This was the guest editorial for
a recent issue of Technical Communication.) For those who are interested,
the article is now available on the TECHWR-L site (thanks to Deb and Eric)
at: http://www.raycomm.com/techwhirl/tenmyths.html
Enjoy, and by all means, take what I've written and run with it: explore it,
challenge it, disagree with it, build on it, prove it (or disprove it! <g>).
"The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite
of a profound truth may well be another profound truth."--Niels Bohr,
physicist (1885-1962)
