Hmm, Hunter, Hunter,...  wasn't he an STC patrol leader?  Yeah, he might 
have been someone I'd trust to do it.  Not just anyone can understand 
the pure fetishistic impulse of professionalization, let alone inspire 
us to earn the merit badges needed to become a certified bona fide 
technical writer.  But if anyone could, it'd have been Hunter. 
 
 
Good idea,
