I'm not opposed to corrections or the best efforts being made. But jeez, even editors don't know enough about things to catch these things, and this stuff percolates through everything, everywhere. And I'm not losing sleep over it, or throwing the book babes out with the book bathwater.
That's all, that's how it is for me, life is too short. I watched the only grandfather I ever got to know drive himself and everyone around him crazy with perfectionism and attempts to control everything. I squelch those tendencies in my own nature, and veered off elsewhere. I can find the enjoyment in the Green book and just go past the errors. We are the posterity of the pasts's factual errors and we'll leave a posterity as flawed, and it all goes on.
