I have been tempted to rewrite some manuals, but never had the nerve.
I actually decided to become a tech writer _because_ of the poorly
written instruction manuals that my husband, son, and I have been
subjected to over the years.
Happy Holidays all!

(Right now I write training manuals for tax software. Maybe someday I
will have the opportunity to write some assembly instruction manuals.)
