Erratum: bad math

I did some very bad math in Newsletter #22. The archived copy has been edited to reflect the following correction.

The difference of a little over a dollar may not mean much in the U.S., but in the Philippines, the difference of over a thousand pesos is A LOT — more than enough to buy a kilogram of large shrimps.

(Sorry, bad math. The difference is over fifty pesos and that won’t buy a hundred grams of shrimps).
