I saw this on misc.writing last night, too, and I'm not sure whether
or not I agreed with the message. In fact, like the original 'whine &
drivel' message to this list, I'm not sure that I understand what the
message is.
This case is even more puzzling because there have been several
threads on misc.writing directing people with tech-writing questions
to bit.listserv.techwr-l and TECHWR-L.
In any case, I would caution against the reposting of someone's
message without their prior permission.
