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.
This thread reminds me of another, true, story. A woman bought a van with
cruise control, and the sales brochure said the van "practically drove
itself." So, as she drove down the highway, she put on the cc and went
back to check on her baby. Of course, she crashed. Luckily no one was
badly hurt, and the auto company immediately recalled *all* those
brochures. <g>
Speaking of, does anyone have a copy of the "Darwin awards" funny that's
been making the rounds? If you do, please forward it.
