Engineering “phantoms” respond
Abstract
The Professional Communication Society's renewed goal of increasing support to the technical community must have struck a happy chord for some engineers who have responded on a positive note. The following letter from Bill Hibbard, an engineer with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, is typical of the responses we've received: Your editorial in the September PC Transactions says you would like to hear from us. So, I'm writing yet. I am one of the ‘engineers’ (i.e., not a professional communicator) who belong to the Society. I joined for the very reasons you suggest: to get help and support in my professional communications. As a space systems study manager, I have lots of opportunities to write and to speak. (I also enjoy the English language.) And so it follows that I enjoy and appreciate your publications.
