TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. 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.
I finally admit to never reading the story, so I decided to Google it and
have a quick scan. And what to my wondering eyes did appear? The very model
of the dynamics of Techwr-l, not to mention the lives of Whirlers in
general:
"For a long time (the Velveteen Rabbit) lived in the toy cupboard or on the
nursery floor, and no one thought very much about him. He was naturally shy,
and being only made of velveteen, some of the more expensive toys quite
snubbed him. The mechanical toys were very superior, and looked down upon
every one else; they were full of modern ideas, and pretended they were
real. The model boat, who had lived through two seasons and lost most of his
paint, caught the tone from them and never missed an opportunity of
referring to his rigging in technical terms. The Rabbit could not claim to
be a model of anything, for he didn't know that real rabbits existed; he
thought they were all stuffed with sawdust like himself, and he understood
that sawdust was quite out-of-date and should never be mentioned in modern
circles."
