Anthony: Thanks!

James: I knew it was *supposed* to be fired in the Kindle edition but was thinking of buying it just to be sure. Thanks for saving me $14. And for being kind enough to let me know.

I then went to pg. 29 and was indeed confused (not unusual for me, mind you). I then came here, hoping there was some kind of prize. . .and all you want is for me to write in my book. Not cool. Where’s my invisible man in the sky-damned prize?

I’m looking forward to a good read!

P.S.–sorry about your douche bag editor.

Thank you for the kind words.

I believe that there will soon be “Look Inside” text at Amazon, and when there is, I will try to include a link to it directly from the blog page.

As for the book with the self-referential errata—I’m afraid I can’t remember another thing about it. I’d love to credit the author, but I have no memory of the author, the title or the subject.

The suggestion: either put the index on a web page or make it possible to “look inside” at Amazon.

The question: what is the book that had the self-referential Errata? It sounds like the kind of book that I might enjoy.

> What was the wrong URL?

Oh, that’s a long story in and of itself.

The original URL for this site was http://www.The-Big-Questions.com (with hyphens). The cards were printed without the hyphens. Somehow, they looked fine to me when I went to bed on Friday night. But on Saturday morning I woke up with a start and said “The hyphens are missing!”

This left two options: Get new cards made up and delivered over the weekend and/or acquire the non-hyphenated domain. I contact the non-hyphenated domain owner, who unfortunately failed to respond immediately. So we went with Plan B and had non-hyphenated cards made up.

Monday morning, I knew that both the hyphenated and non-hyphenated cards had been delivered to the warehouse, so I called to verify that the correct cards were being used and the others discarded. The warehouse manager said he’d be sure to see to that, though he wasn’t sure what the issue was because the only difference he could see between the cards was a pair of little hyphens. (!)

At this point, I heard from the non-hyphenated domain owner and decided that I really should own both versions of the domain, so I went ahead and bought that—though I drove a much harder bargain than I would have on Saturday morning.
