Abstract

The word "mnemonic" was inadvertently omitted from the last paragraph of the letter entitled "The Head Mnemonic" by Neil B. Edwards, M.D., on page 96 of the January issue. The paragraph should have read, "I fondly refer to my HEAD MNEMONIC as my pathogenic Mnemonic Acronymic Algorithm for Organic Mental Disorders. If the first letters of this phrase are slightly rearranged, they acrynomically spell DOAM MAP."
