A previous note in this thread commented that the most required skill of
a technical communicator is The Art of Listening [I'm paraphrasing a bit
here ... sue me.]
There appears to be a shortage of this skill.
It would explain a lot more than this list.
No, Paul, you're quoting me accurately. And have also understood the gist of my
remark.
