TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
>Anyway, some of you may remember that last fall (winter?) one of us
>tech-wrlers sent some techwr-l digests to Scott Adams when we were
>debating the meaning of one of his strips.
The strip that touched off that little firestorm appeared on March 12, 1995
(it's tacked up in my office).
The message from Scott Adams came about a week after that, he said that
he'd -never- gotten this strong a reaction from any of his strips, and
that's when he said he'd incorporate some of our personality traits into
his new tech writer character.
