        I have seen a 'binder's error'

        Printer's errors are corrected in proofs.

        I don't think it is helpful to pretend that
        the technology is perfect. After all, the
        trend has been to foist on an unsuspecting
        public of students and faculty the task of
        quality control. Production disciplines that
        once were the province of highly paid
        technicians in the graphic arts industry
        can hardly be acquired with ease.

        Best wishes,
