TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
"That you felt you had to write this apology leaves me with feelings of
chagrin and shame for the list and my association with it."
You can feel shame and chagrin if you want, but that is your personal
feelings. As a member of the list, and one that doesn't see what all the
hoopla is about, don't associate your same with me.
I also tried to read Wanda's posting and gave up. I couldn't see wasting my
time to respond as I have several deadlines quickly approaching and a staff
to manage. The first responses to Wanda's posting that I read mentioned the
formatting problem. Someone took offense to that and now it seems the entire
list is unfriendly, mean, cruel..... Hogwash. A significant portion of the
list's membership are hard working professional technical writers who often
bend over backwards to help fellow writers, no matter what level.

without a destination, I figured, than to cross the wrong threshold each
day." (Anon.)
