ha ha, no, I didn't mean that. I meant they were "updated." They put a disclaimer at the beginning of Forever and redid Are You There God It's Me Margaret so Margaret wasn't wearing a pad with a belt anymore. I just thought it was stupid - those books are about feelings, not about technical crap like that. Plus it disturbs the flow (no pun intended) if they don't update the clothes, slang etc etc along with it. It's kind of like colorizing movies - sounds good in theory, but in practice is so glaringly distracting that it detracts from your enjoyment of the movie/book/whatever.
