Hi, all,
Someone mentioned having an address for the military "comics".
Could you please email me that information? I accidentally deleted it.
Also, if anyone else has sources for where to get examples of comics used
as tech writing, please send me the information.
Thanks.

PS: Anyone remember the article published in the STC journal a couple of
years back on levels of tech writing? The author(s) compared primers,
high school texts, and college texts to different forms of technical
writing. Their thesis was that the most effective technical writing is
on the primer level--minimum text and maximum graphics.
