Grammar is important simply because not all Technical Writers have an editor
(or an editor substitute) to follow behind them. This is my current
situation. Unless I do a decent job of editing my own work (and that's
difficult, I love every letter of it) then my work is going to be published
that way. I would prefer my work to be as perfect as I can get it when it
goes to print. Therefore, love it or not, I really work at it.
