Errata for Bridge Example in the text on THB p. 258

The errata is for the 100 and 1,100 ton starship bridge examples on p. 258 which has probably been posted at least once, but just in case the errata was missed the following is what I found:

"For example a 100-ton ship would require 20 tons of bridge space allocated, even though the the table specifies 4 tons."

Looking at either the Manufactured (p. 256) or Planetoid Hulls (p. 258) Tables the 100 ton hull's calculated bridge allocation is 2 tons, not 4 as per the text.

"But an 1,100 ton ship would require 24 tons, using the 1,000 ton hull and the 100 ton hull specifications."

From either Hulls table:

</font><blockquote>code:</font><hr /><pre style="font-size:x-small; font-family: monospace;">Hull 1,000 Bridge 20
Hull 100 Bridge 2
Total 22</pre>[/QUOTE]Recommendation: Either change the text to reflect a 200 ton hull or a 2 ton bridge.
