Didn't you see the paragraph that preceded that sentence, where the "it" is defined as "the passage got horribly garbled at some point into something incoherent, I still can’t completely figure out how, was patched back together by the copyeditor into something that made logical sense but was obviously factually wrong"? Really, is it so difficult, just to say, "Yes, good catch. That was my bad. Look for the correction in the next edition."? -raghu. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
