Tehetehe... As much as I love the thought of being recognized and
appreciated professionally, I think you'll have to take up the fight on

I'm not even sure where to point you, but I can tell you, when you get the
profession "Tech Writer" added to the list of names of professions (like
medical doctors, engineers, judges etc) who can authenticate passport
