Very funny Rick!

I am burning my last post for this??

I did not type Manuel. The person responding from APA did it and I did not 
catch it.

Now, should we be surprised that there are problems with Manuel?

>>   The Publication Manual is one of the most important
>>   books we publish.  Before this edition of the
>>   Publication Manual was released, it was put through
>>   multiple stages of editing and proofing and was
>>   painstakingly examined by many sets of eyes before

>>   process, errors like those you identify below
>>   occurred.  We share your dismay and deeply regret
>>   the confusion caused by the subsequent discrepancy
>>   between the sample papers and the text.
>>
>>
>>
>>   To remedy this, we have posted corrected papers in
>>   the Related Resources section of the APA Style
>>   website (www.apastyle.org).  We will be posting a
>>   full list of reprint corrections within the next few

>>
>>   I am writing to tell how dismayed and confused I am
>>   over the new style manual.
>>
>>
>>
>>   There are quite a few discrepancies between the text
>>   and the sample paper. This is unfortunate. Just
>>   Friday I submitted a paper to an APA journal, and
>>   wanting to get used to the new style, looked to the
>>   sample paper (as a short cut) to make headings and
>>   layout conform to the new style. Unfortunately, I
>>   have now realized that I made several errors. I
>>   understand from colleagues that errata will be
>>   publised at the apa.org website, but this is
>>   difficult to keep up with.
>>
>>
>>
>>   As a teacher of undergraduate research methods in
>>   psychology at the lower and upper division levels,
>>   this is also disconcerting. It is difficult for me,
>>   as a teacher, to get used the changes, but it is all
>>   that much harder for the students to learn APA style
>>   when the sample paper doesn't conform to the style.
>>
>>
>>
>>   In my 20+ years of teaching I have been able to tell
>>   students to check the sample paper in the APA manual
>>   as the final word, and ignore the one in whatever
>>   textbooks they had at their disposal, as the manual
>>   was "the" final word. Well, apparently not any
>>   longer. So there is no final sample for students to
>>   model.
>>
>>
>>
>>   Hopefully there will be a second printing and I can
>>   get another "desk" copy that will have the changes
>>   in it.
