Point taken, I've seen the same thing. But somehow those same companies
know when they need a CPA instead of a bookkeeper, a lawyer instead of
a paralegal, a carpenter instead of a handyman. It's just when it comes
to tech writing that the high end and the low end of capabilities get
all mooshed together.
