but then I remembered how much time
I struggled with the error before I resolved it.

2nd paragraph from bottom |
Paragraph reads:
For example:
int count = (from name in names
where n.contains ("a")
select name
).Count();
The iteration variable given after "from" is "name" and yet "n" is used in the where clause.

3rd from bottom of page |
Paragraph states:
Without the temporary variable, the query will use the most recent value of vowel ("u") on each successive filter, so only the "u" characters will be removed.
This paragraph refers to the example code above it. I have tried the example code with and without the temporary variable that it says is required and I find that the results are identical.

The explanation of the example states:
"In this example, LINQ to SQL automatically writes 100 into the CustomerID column of each of the new purchases."
In the example the customer ID is 1, not 100, which is the ID of the first purchase. This is the number that will be written to each of the new purchase rows.
