For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.

Yes, of course. My point exactly. When one does a really good PR job, large
segments of the population will mantle one's profession with an aura of
priestly respectability. When this happens, people will refuse to apply the
same conclusions that they might draw about licensed egg-handlers and
dog-barbers to, say, doctors. The revered professions can then call their
own shots without much murmuring from the public.
