Re: Tech Writer contacts at Autodesk, Hewlett Packard (No. Calif. )?

The plural of faux is faux; the plural of pas is pas; the plural of
"any" is "many," as in, "I hope I don't commit any faux pas."

Packard (No. Calif.)?

        Hi everybody. I'm new to this listserv, so I hope I don't commit
any faux=

        pas's (What is the plural of "pas"  anyway? Or should I
pluralize the fir=
        st
        word, as in "mothers in law"? Fauxes?). =


        I am changing careers, from programming to technical writing,
fairly late=

        in life. I have 1-1/2 semesters to go in the Technical and
Professional
        Writing program at San Francisco State University. =


        I am interested in contacting Autodesk, Inc. and
Hewlett-Packard, both of=

        whom have offices in Northern California,so as to conduct a
15-minute =

        informational interview--what it's like to work there, etc. This
is a
        student exercise. =


        If you know (or know of) technical writers or editors at these
companies,=

        and you can share their names, I would be grateful. Send private
e-mail i=
        f
        you don't want to broadcast the information over the listserv. =


        One other thing: Is it OK if I use your name in contacting these
        individuals?

        Thank you.
