Nutty warnings
The warning on the Christmas antlers in Sideswipe (may cause cancer, birth defects and reproductive harm) is probably nothing to worry about, says Alistair Stewart. "California's Proposition 65 has led to the prescribed warning text being sprayed over everything in the state so it has become meaningless. There are stiff penalties for not displaying the warning if there is any risk, but no penalty for false warning ... so the obvious has happened. Sort of like the may contain traces of nuts warning that appears on non-nutty items - and is therefore no help at all for the genuinely allergic."
Writing wrongs
A Tauranga reader writes: "Your corrections and clarifications reminded me of a couple of items I saw in newspapers in Britain. A reference to a retired military officer being "a bottle-scarred warrior" was corrected with an apology in the following day's edition, saying the passage should have described him as "a battle-scared warrior". A correction to the correction appeared the day after that. My favourite correction was in a Hampshire newspaper of a misheard reply to a reporter's question while compiling a wedding report: 'It was incorrectly stated that the happy couple would be living at the bridegroom's father's house. In fact they will be taking up residence at The Old Manse'."
