Default Re: Original points ,how thay are made

I just try to point out not to trust whom some trust too much.

The steering sector diameter is one that just glaringly sticks in my head. In fact, Bratton's uses the wrong number that Les publishes. I believe that these errors have not been changed even though there have been several revisions of the book. Bratton's has not changed it even though I pointed it out several years ago.

Error have wandered through and messed up restorers for years. Before the net you had limited resources to check the books. At least today all you have to do is ask online.

Finally,

I want to be clear. I am not bashing Les. He is a valuable resource. I just have troubles understanding how some information has not been corrected through the years. It certainly would not be hard for him to put the corrections online.
