I really, really can not believe that an experience TW
exists who has not experienced this! Please TechComm
Dood - tell me your kidding in your request.
(Actually, the saying is just as applicable for great
software designs, great test plans, etc, etc - but
that is another story.)

While I totally agree with you, there is an old TW
saying: "Great technical communications is so
simple and straight forward (and short),
they(management) will wonder what took you so long."
Unfortunately, this is still true with many - or most
- managers; and therefore many a TW, whether he/she
admits it or not,feels compelled to strive for high
page counts.
TechComm Dood:
And the proof to back up this statement?
