Although the internet makes it easier to search for articles these days, readers may still have had problems getting hold of references 2 and 3 in this article by K M Venkat Narayan and colleagues (14 July, pp 63-4) as some important details were wrong. The correct volume number for these two references is 344 [not 333], and the correct page numbering for reference 3 is 1390-2 [not 390-2].
