Book I Corrections
Readers point out errors

Michael says, "Love your book! But there's an error on page 11. Humans did not evolve "to survive on a planet with nothing more toxic than broccoli." Broccoli is a man-made cross between cauliflower and rabe, done by the Broccoli family generations ago. Oddly enough, a Broccoli descendant produced all seventeen James Bond films.  [ More information on Broccoli ]

Joe Sudkamp says, "On page 105 you have written, '...discouraged from using effective birth control.'  While the Roman Catholic Church does not approve of the use of artificial birth control methods, it has no problem with effective methods of birth control such as natural family planning or celibacy. I have really enjoyed your book thus far, but I was a little disappointed in your choice of words here."

Cynthia says, "Get your facts straight! On page 10 you refer to the outlawing of evolution in the Kansas City School District. The actual occurrence had nothing to do with the Kansas City School District, which is in MISSOURI. We are far more evolved than our neighbors on the other side of the state line! The teaching of evolution was voted down by the Board of Education of the entire State of Kansas. This decision has since been reversed, and the idiots behind it have all been voted out of office. Those of us who live in Missouri, a MUCH more progressive state, are sick and tired of having to put up with the stupidity that goes on in Kansas."

Page 66: "The drive driver had just engaged the truck's compactor..."

Page 183, 3rd paragraph: "nonimees" shoud be "nominees"

Page 308, line 9: "It immediately because became apparent that..."

Eddie Moczygemba says, "Homosexuals are not the only ones who give birth to homosexuals I was apalled to read in your book, "Homosexuals are arguably eligible for a group Darwin, since they eschew reproductive sex." Surely someone smart enough to give birth to the Darwin Awards cannot possibly be stupid enough to believe that homosexuals breed homosexuals! If you do not print a retraction, I will start a media campaign not seen since that Laura women started spouting her nonsense. Please do not discount this as some crazed faggot with his panties in a wad. Shame on you! You must fix this egregious error!

Darwin:
"That flame stung. You are just so wrong, Eddie, you didn't read to the end of that three-page section. The conclusion was the opposite of the stated premise. Please give me the benefit of a doubt; I think that we are actually astoundingly fit to our environments and plead with the public to accept the working spectrum as normal. I would be most embarrassed if you were to start a campaign against me, as my beliefs in this arena align with yours more than they differ. If you like, I will gladly buy the book back for the full purchase price. Please do not be offended on my account! Regards, Wendy."

Eddie: 
Wendy, Wendy, Wendy... Thank you so much for the quick response. I did read to the end of that three-page section. "...even those celibate groups that manage to expand their ranks will logically eliminate themselves once they reach the hypothetical pinnacle of success: RECRUITMENT of the entire human race." Please tell me you do not know someone who is gay and has won their toaster oven for recruiting someone over to our side?

Wendy: 
"Hmmm. I do see your point, and it seems that I made an error of logic.Apparently I needed a more thorough editing of that chapter. Thanks for your letter, Eddie."

Eddie:
P.S. as for buying back the book...
NOT A CHANCE!
YOU RULE!
