You dance
With your lizard leather boots on
And pull the strings
That change the faces of men
You diamond browed hag
(M.B. 1972)

I used Kindle a lot and was routinely using the software to send in corrections, until I found out that too many reports can result in Amazon pulling a book from sale.
I hate the shoddy editing, but I don't think the authors should suffer for failings by their publisher.

Well done. I barely managed twice that today.

Not just you. I found it tedious, shallow and artificial. It was sitting through eight episodes waiting for a punch line that turned out to have no punch.

No-one mentioning that an electronic ID means unlocking your phone and handing it over for a QR code or similar to be scanned. Going to make stop and search a whole new game.
