style guide survey

[LENDA ZIEGLER <NLNDA -at- TTACS -dot- TTU -dot- EDU>]

Date:           November 15.1994
To:             Any and all editors out there
From:   NLNDA, a graduate student in Technical Communication
Subject:        Style guides

Even though I've already sent this once, and have received
several responses, I really need more.
I sure would appreciate it if any editor who reads this
message would respond to this little survey so that I will
have enough original research to add to an article I am
writing. I was told that you can just copy the survey to a
file, fill in the blanks, and then send the file back to me:
nlnda -at- ttacs -dot- ttu -dot- edu -dot-    As you know, the more editors who
respond, the more accurate my statistics will be.  Thanks
again for your help. And thanks to all who already
responded. I will send results in December.
