I would have preferred a story line like this:

A withdrawn technical writer working for a government contractor meets with
an engineer to test his documents. He meets the engineer in the >basement of some top-secret research lab. ...While alone,
the technical writer unwittingly stumbles across one of the following:

* I top-secret government cyborg assassin


The technical writer sees a desk and a computer with FrameMaker conveniently installed in the corner. He quickly sits down and types. When the engineer returns, the write has fully documented the use of the cyborg. with appropriate warning and error messages.

Diane Evans, who is on her last day of contracting ever again (perm job in the awesome not-dot-com begins on Monday!)
