Sunday's paper here in Salt Lake City carried a Scott Adams cartoon about
tech writing. In a nut shell, a lady writer blows up at an engineer for not
reviewing her stuff. The engineer relents, reads the stuff, and then says,
"These pages are blank! You've been bluffing for months!" To which the
humiliated writer replies, "I think I'll go have a yummy compost salad with
delicious fetid cheese."

I didn't like the cartoon for four reasons:

1. It wasn't even mildly funny.

2. It maligns women. (My fuse is rather short on this one: I have four
daughters)

3. It maligns tech writers.

4. I paid good money to get insulted.

Fortunately, Mr. Adams has an email address: scottadams -at- aol -dot- com

Is this a great country or what?
