against immigration reform. This was in reference to
protests against the 2006 Sensenbrenner Bill--not against the
comprehensive reform proposal which followed in 2007. That
particular sentence has been changed in order to eliminate
confusion. Second, in the essay, "Illegal Immigration As a
Social Problem, Part I," (I.D. No. 131), in paragraph
26, the next-to-the-last sentence has been worded more precisely:
changing does not to cannot, and political
to ethno-political.

Some essays were
improved for careful use of the word trauma. In some
instances, this word had been used in a loose journalistic
sense. As appropriate, the word trauma now reflects a

descriptive word or phrase, or the sentence has been removed
entirely. Only the corrected essays are currently posted on the
website.

appear with the following topic identification numbers on the
