Fix it in your source now so it doesn't bite you in the future.

Or, if you have a process, add the item to the list for a future rev.

Cheers.

I just found an error in one of the manuals I work on and I feel sick.
Fortunately, the error does not pose the user any danger but it looks
bad.
What do you all do when this happens? I'm having a bad case of the "I'm
not perfect" blues.
