I was engrossed in William Gibson's Spook Country when I discovered a binding error in my copy. Ironic since the missing chunk occurs just after Chapter 55 "Phantom Gun Syndrome". So I managed to locate a complete version of the text and avoid the gap between pages 246 and 311.
While reading Pattern Recognition I came across a misprint which led to some interesting interpretation. See Sine Die 15 http://homes.chass.utoronto.ca/~lachance/sd/sd0015.htm Still it's eerie to read the line "From behind, he saw Brown's hand touch the place where his gun wasn't" and then turn to a lot of prose that wasn't.
And so for day 269
