RE: FWD: You will be assimilated...now what?

If I may weigh in to confirm a few stereotypes about the Irish, our
fridge is never without beer. Now, in truth, it's rarely drunk during
office hours (I can't say the same for the staff), but I am one of only
two non-drinkers in a staff of forty. The week isn't complete without at
least two evenings at the pub.

To connect this with technical writing, have you ever tried interviewing
a drunk SME? Cheers. DB.
