At night I've been reading Tom's book...good book to put you to sleep (actually, though clumsily written, it is interesting subject matter), but I've noticed several general inaccuracies as concerning the runaway strike (such as what each studio was working on at the time - sometimes hew as several years off - and some of the sequence of events) which caused me to wonder how inaccurate the rest of the book might be as well.
Tom emailed me that he's collecting corrections in the event he can do a revised edition. If you know things that are incorrect in the book, you can email tom(at)tomsito(dot)com.

My review of Tom Sito's book Drawing the Line: The Untold Story of the Animation Unions from Bosko to Bart Simpson is up on the fps site. If you don't want to click through to read it, the short review is that it's an excellent book and worth reading.
