In the version of this article, an exponent was missing for the number of spins in the text now reading "Baity-Jesi and colleagues have simulated a set of 1603 spins interacting with their nearest neighbours through randomly distributed couplings of value ±1"; the error is corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of the article.
