Typo in Fodor's 04 Hawai'i ?
On page 291, discussing the "forbidden" island of Ni'ihau, it says:

"The cost for this 23-mi-long, 3-ft-wide island was $10,000."

THREE FEET WIDE? I guess everyone there lives single-file...

No, no, no. They don't stand single file, they stand on top of each other.

I see, kind of a living totem pole, eh? ;-)

I guess the Kahunas are at the top...

I wonder how many more typos can be discovered if people actually read their guides.

Beady, great attention to details! Are you an accountant or a teacher, I wonder.

Nope, though I do IT support for an accounting department.

I'm just a habitual nit-picker ;-)
