I didn't say in my initial note, but I should have, as I intended to, 
that I printed out the section I was responsible for--G.  I did not 
print out p. 1-40 but read them on screen [I had downloaded the text to 
my hard drive].  As as result, of course, I couldn't see as clearly the 
formatting things that the person responsible for that area saw.  So 
proof readers are advised to print out the text they are responsible
for.
