I second this amendment.
For the entertainment of those who think "This is not really an
amendment", here the first definition of "to amend" from Webster 1913:
To change or modify in any way for the better; as,
(a) by simply removing what is erroneous, corrupt,
superfluous, faulty, and the like;
(b) by supplying deficiencies;
(c) by substituting something else in the place of what is
removed; to rectify.
