var id = "not awesome"
Note from the Author or Editor: That line should read (adding the semicolon on the end):
var id = "not awesome";

The text is "(then enclosing/global scope which also holds a)". Should be "(the enclosing/global scope which also holds a)".
Note from the Author or Editor: As described in the errata report, "then" should have been "the" in the parenthetical. This phrase appears in Chapter 5 near the end of the "Now I Can See" section. Page 53 in print book.
