Some examples of Info Mapping on another list
reminded me of this parody of technical writing
that was circulating several years ago, long before
the concept of Info Mapping was around.
Enjoy!

How Do I Love Thee?
1.1 Introduction
This section describes the various ways that I love thee.
It consists of three main subsections:
o Subsection 2.1 enumerates and describes the conditions
under which my soul interoperates with thee.
o Subsection 2.2 discusses three inputs and outputs (I/O)
that use central air processing units, positive
reinforcement facial muscles, or negative/positive
liquid-emitting ocular ports.
o Subsection 2.3 is a code fragment using the if/endif
option related to post-shutdown mode.
The following subsection assumes that you are familiar with
basic concepts relating to:
o Standard units of measure
o My soul
o Love
If you are not familiar with these concepts, consult your
system administrator, religion-specific clergy, or philosopher.
2.1 Enumeration of Ways I Love Thee
ow do I love thee? Let me count the ways:
I love thee:
1. To the depth my soul can reach
2. To the breadth my soul can reach
3. To the height my soul can reach
Note - The conditions described in Subsection 2.1 above
apply to my soul only when feeling out of sight For the
end of Being and ideal Grace.
2.2 Finer Granularity Enumeration of Ways I Love Thee
The following subsection assumes that you are familiar
with the following I/Os:
o The inhaled/exhaled product of my central air
processing units
o The interactive display invoked by my positive
reinforcement facial muscles
o The product of my negative/position liquid-emitting
ocular ports
If you are not familiar with these I/Os, consult your doctor
or nearest professor of biology.
I love thee with:
o The breath of all my life
o The smiles of all my life
o The tears of all my life
2.3 Shutdown Code Fragment
The program fragment in the following subsection assumes
that you are familiar with basic concepts relating to:
o The if/endif option
o The body's post-shutdown mode
o God
If you are not familiar with these concepts, enroll in a C++
programming course.
if (GOD_CHOOSE == TRUE)
I shall love thee better after death
}
#endif
