============
Right. And while you're subscribed to both techwr-l and
copyediting-l, don't expect to get much work done because you'll
be spending all your time scanning email.
The traffic on copyediting-l is even heavier (much heavier at
times) than on techwr-l. It would be nice if busy tech writers
could depend on techwr-l to address the smaller issues of
writing for a living as well as the big-picture issues.
