More on finding a second printing

I have still not had a response from APA beyond "we'll get back to you," but have heard the same story from three different people and so feel confident that is is true.

The second printing is not available in paperback.  One person said APA may have it available in that binding in November.  Because these errors do not, in APA's opinion, affect the utility of the book, they are not distributing a second printing until the first in gone.   I have heard from two people who have second printings but do not yet know how they got them.  I'm fairly confident you cannot just go to an online order function and specify second printing.  You have to call or visit a store in person to get a second printing.

Borders wrote me today and indicated they are considering how they might make information about the printing available for this title, so we may soon have one easy source for referrals.

I have an image of the verso page of the second printing, which should be helpful for showing people what to look for.   I'll probably also post it as a separate posting so it is easy to find on the page.
