Technical Communication is _not_ about creating an environment within
which we can communicate. Technical Communication is about how to
communicate within an environment which already exists.
Wishes are fine - I'm wishing for a Sparc 20 myself. But the
environment is ceaseless changing. The need for communication
within any environment does not.
