Yes, Kai...hasty carelessness...no reading before sending.

I must have had that Ulysses link already on my iPad when
I responded to your email about the Kogon book......

In the phenomenon of my doing, all I thought I was doing was
responded in a few words to your post discovered as I opened my
email.

Yes, I did not even notice the link.

Sorry.
