It's still there when I look at it... 

--- snip ---- 

Marie, never use the term "old" to describe earlier technology. And,
uppercase is never used to highlight--change to all lowercase bold. Use
"previous" or something similar. FFT-type is a compound adjective. In the
second sentence, "and sends only FFT...), always be careful where you place
the word "only" in a sentence (note: only sends (connotes a negative
impression) versus sends only ). Always keep the entire verb together (ie,
Have been gone only 5 days versus Have been only gone 5 days). In the last
sentence, stating that this is a PERMANENT restriction is sufficient. There
is no need to tell a customer that this is NEVER going to change. 

Please do NOT forget that all this is stuff I learned over 20 years...you
are doing a GREAT job on these documents...there's just LOTS to learn. But,
that's what makes the job fun, I think!

That'll teach us to post anything here - Big Blue is watching. Just like 
the person (unknown to me) on this list who informed MS that they had 
AS/400s in their XP tour - they took it out! Doh!
