[ATM] ATM: Errata as an attachment-

["David Harbour" <stainless_steel@suddenlink.net>]

For all who have, or will, obtain a copy of my little book:

I do not see my rather longish explanation of the single, but not 
insigificant (most would recognize the error) textual error, in one of the 
appendices of my little book. That is okay; this one will be short.

Instead of having someone print a bunch of little Errata slips, to scotch 
tape in the inside right hand cover, and mail them out, why don't I just 
formally compose the Errata in Word, and attach it to an email for each of 
you to print at home, with your own cyber gear?

I am having a harder and harder time getting around; actually falling, on 
occasion, and tied to those accursed black "Canadian Crutches". When I eat 
lunch across the street at the soup kitchen (restaraunt quality meals, 
usually, and free seconds, refills, each week day) someone has to carry my 
tray for me, and getting up and down out of those brown metal chairs, trying 
to work those Canadian Crutches to get going, slamming and banging the 
chairs around, makes me feel like Dr. Frankenstein's monster. I am not 
kidding. The soup kitchen, "Our Daily Bread", is only "Kattie Kornered" 
across the intersection from my apartments- yet, even with my crutches, I 
cannot walk over there. I have to drive!!

This is not a complaint; each comes to his different estate in life, soon or 
late; I have had a very good life, flying with Theresa in the Fairchild, 
building and using fine telescopes, and tutoring many on the web in optics.

If you guys would, perhaps just each of you let me know, offlist, whether 
that would be okay or not- composing the Errata note myself (it is a simple 
textual error; I do not know how I could have missed it with four proof 
reads, but I did- I am slipping, on the threshold of slipping badly, now). 
Will you guys let me know? I will compose a clear Errata note, to correct 
the mistake that got by, and I can send it to each and everyone of you who 
has, or is contemplating getting the little book. Most of you would find it 
on your own; however, I need to "save face".

Ha! Save face. How ridiculous I am; how ridiculous most of us can be, when 
we want to.

Please let me know, all-

Davey
