Who's this "we", Keemosabe?

Don't know about you, but I'm a technical communicator who will accept 
roles as a technical writer, a user assistance developer, a business 
writer, a technical editor, a web content developer, an instructional 
designer, or, if it should come to that, a sign-painter.

It's all communication.
