I think it's a normal situation. Journals have articles with errors.
Textbooks have errors. There nothing that can be done, because it's only
natural to make mistakes. You should feel good that you can see those

I think these people have the same problem with 'compartmentalizing'
that Dennis and others have WRT academic departments.
I haven't checked it out yet, but perhaps there is a solution here. If
we can vertically integrate R & E (education), perhaps we can
horizontally integrate some of the E in
