John, that ain't the sizzle. That IS the steak. You delivered documentation that was
sorely needed. You demonstrated that a good Technical Writer CAN deliver something
useful, useable, and attractive.
Even SMEs like to be appreciated. That is obviously your real gift. Good job, and
thanks for sharing it.
