MS Manual of Style, 3rd edition, is available - clarification

[Jean Hollis Weber <jean -at- jeanweber -dot- com>]

Addendum and correction to my previous note. It's the third _version_, not 
edition, of the manual, which means it may be the latest, but it's not new. 
The file date in 1998. I'm now assuming it's the CHM that is distributed on 
the CD that came with the printed version of the second edition of the manual.

At least having the CHM freely available gets around the problem of the 
overpriced secondhand printed copies, for those who need a copy now.

Sorry about the misleading post yesterday. I should have taken the time to 
verify what was there, instead of just passing along a message from someone 
else.

Regards, Jean
