Hello,
First of all, I would like to thank you all for the interesting and 
sometimes entertaining information you post on this list.

I am a graduate student working on a major paper and thesis at the same 
time. I am investigating the role that public relations plays in a tech 
writer's job. More specifically, I have been reading material that promotes 
technical writers helping the company out when it comes to public relations 
writing - especially for technical press releases.

Do any of you have experience in public relations? Have you ever been asked 
to step in and help with press releases or other public relations projects? 
In your opinion, would technical writers benefit from public relations 
training in addition to technical writing training?

Thank you in advance for your help!
