This is a re-send. The original time stamp was wonked, potentially burying
the post under two days' worth of messages.--k

(and other good stuff--check the archives :)

-- Like it or not, Andrew Plato is right at least some of the time, and he
is always entitled to his opinion.
-- The Delete key is your friend. The Send key is fickle. In either case,
you or anyone else can retrieve messages from the archives.
-- Current and potential employers count as "anyone else".
-- When all else fails, take a deep breath and go "snorky, snorky, snorky."
-- If you disagree with tech writing advice from John Posada or Geoff Hart,
there is a very good chance that you're wrong (certification issues
notwithstanding; let's not go there).
-- If it looks like an ad and quacks like an ad, it's probably an ad.
-- Not all list members are in the USA.
-- SnagIt. Next question?
-- The list is echoed to Usenet. Spambots harvest from Usenet. Deal with
it.
-- You'd be surprised by how many of us never learned grammar in grade
school.
-- Unless you're Steve Hudson, don't even think about using Word's Master
Documents.
-- Say it with me: "It depends."
-- Occupational humour is the Techwr-l equivalent of Casual Fridays.
Fridays sometimes happen on other days of the week.
-- ... and which tool are you using?
-- If you've already made a reasonable attempt to find a solution, chances
are it's not a stupid question.
-- Before you agonize about endless revisions, ask yourself: "Are my
utility bills getting paid on time?"
-- We're communicators, not typists. While this isn't usually an issue on
the list, you might want to point it out to anal-retentive cow-orkers.
-- We're terse by definition. Get over it.

Cheers ... Kim
