If I were to choose TKD, I would have to insist on bringing a printed
copy of my revised version.
In digital format, I have moved the addendum into the main text of the book.
Luckily, the addendum follows the same section numbering pattern
making it easy to do so.
Beyond that; I have begun--note, begun--incorporating other canon into
the book as well.
For example, I have "time" with "numbers".
And it looks like I'll have to add a section on no' Hol soon...
