Description

Dear co-editors,

who has added the extra info for Flower o’ the Quern? From the history possibly Eric?

The text is written in 1st person’s voice “I often hear…”, “I understand…”, “I believe…”, but it remains unclear who this refers to.

Since I just added John Drewry’s note from the book, I doubt that this refers to him.

Best wishes, Heiko

I last edited the notes in April 2004; after that only Anselm and Heiko edited the dance.

Rather than research the origins of those - indeed rather odd - words, I have modified the text to avoid any such speculation.

To my astonishment some serious errors in both Eric’s Cribs and Minicribs were pointed out to me today; I see they have been there since well over a decade, and nobody ever told us. What a pity.

Fixed. Eric

Dear Eric,

the expressions “As I understand…” and “I believe…” are still in the extra info!

Regards, Heiko

I have now moved John Drewry’s comment about his dance to the beginning of the extra info, such that the statement “Ron Russell wrote the following” cannot include Drewry’s remark from the book (which I had added later).

Cheers, Heiko
