I apologise to any who misunderstood me.
How to run meetings and maximise their benefit is rare, useful and
valuable knowledge.  The John Cleese video will be fun and informative,
and I'm sure Brian will be an interesting speaker and do justice to the
topic.
 
I was just railing against the unstated suggestion that some poor
technical writer might be railroaded into secretarial duties because a
perceived ability to make notes and type from them equates secretaries
and technical writers.  Perish the thought.
 
Secretaries type.
Writers stare out windows in contemplation.   :-)
