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.
'twas a typo that produced a pun, and shortly thereafter I went home for
the day. I realized after I sent this to the list that I could not even

And yes, we are a software company! Though our developers would not want
to admit we have bugs. Only "issues" to work out. :-)
Luckily this didn't make it into final print, or I'd be worried it'd
find its way into the next edition of "Anguished English," somewhere no
tech writer should aspire to be!
May everyone's Friday be typo free.
