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.
Brilliant! :) I'd never thought of that... so Shem, Ham and Yefet all were technical writers as well! I'd have loved to have seen the walls of the ark by the time they got off....

Debbie didn't mention the tech writing tie-in of the upcoming holiday (Sukkot), so I will. The pieces of our "booth" at home all have brief instructions written in Sharpie: "Attach Panel 2 before Panel 1," "Use 2-inch bolt to attach Panel 7 before attaching to deck," etc.
Anyone who wonders why there are so many tech writers in Israel need only review the detailed instructions for building Noah's Ark, the Temple in Jerusalem, etc. It has been a steady gig for lo these thousands of years.

Thanks for your input on all this. If I don't answer over the next few days, it is because I will be working in the field for a work, helping to generated donations for our hospital.
Thanks again for your input. I so appreciate the collaboration these types of lists enable. For those of you celebrate the Jewish holidays, hag sameah!
