We know about the error. It's also on Sit 'n Go Strategies, and in addition, we reprinted at the same time Harrington: Volume I and Harrington: Volume II and believe the same error is also there.

We'll get it corrected when we reprint.

Best wishes,
Mason

Boy, that 2 + 2 has some wonderful editing. According to MM this egregious mistake is present in 4 different volumes (he believes). Attention fanboys, please come and tell me how stupid I am to ridicule this absolutely atrocious and laughable error, on the cover, no less, OF FOUR F-ING DIFFERENT BOOKS.

Who cares? Why would you care?

That's right, question me and my motivations. Make me the focus, not the amateurish editing mistake I am simply pointing out. Exhibit B. Next?

ETA. You sound like freaking scientologists. "What are your crimes?"

just wait.

It was pointed out by someone else. You even qouted their post originally. Glad you can take credit for it and then turn into a worthless nitpick!

Exhibit C. I certainly don't "take credit for it." I will leave that dubious distinction to the hardworking editors at 2 + 2. No one had to point it out to me, as I am sure anyone with a 5th grade education would notice this howler, ON THE BOOKS F-ING COVER.

The nitpicking is still worthless. What do you hope to accomplish? Portugeese is still spelled wrong on the cover. Mason commented on it and apologized and only you seem to go a damn about it anyway.

I was a little upset when Nate got banned. If you went I wouldn't mind so much. Acting like a prick doesn't help your argument. That is, if you have one to make.

I was thinking of getting NLTAP and PNL. Reading the comments on this thread is making me think that NLTAP is old and busted next to this book. Should I bother getting NLTAP? Maybe read PNL first and then NLTAP later?

NLH:T&P is of particular value in that Portugeese is not misspelled on the back cover.

That one differance should have an enourmous impact on your bb/100.

I'm totally serious. I find that when I don't have my panties in a violent twist over something that utterly doesn't matter, I'm much less prone to tilt and I play better.

Totally true.

I haven't read PNL yet but I found NLHTAP to be a valuable read.

Thanks for the update. Did you have something of substance to add? I think my point is pretty clear.

Something of substance to be removed. Namely, the wart on the butt of this thread. You think your point is extra clear because you use f--- to emphasize it? Ok, you've made your point. What else you got?
