Ah, but neither does the Human Resources contact (who was listed). :-)
I'd tell Whirlpool how much you liked their documentation and mention
that they must have an excellent technical writing staff. In fact, I
think it would be a good idea for any of us to do this whenever
possible. Why not let companies know that customers notice and
appreciate good technical writing?
