I'd agree with that. While (as Kurt Vonnegut
once noted) technology multiplies the efforts
of artists to the point where many fewer are
now necessary than the gene pool provides,
and the same goes for journalists, technology
does not diminish the need for technical
writers. On the contrary... at least for
the time being.
