Here's the errata page for PCM:

.. the new printing should be out soon.
I definitely plan to get it, especially after reading the VSI.
Brilliantly clear. I've been reading a digital copy (torrent) of the
VLI/PCM (VLI=Very Long Introduction) and it is just as wonderful and
thoughtful.
Maybe a group read/discussion group?
