Jan & I have indeed discussed the problems in the book, but they are the
same ones you mention: poorly translated sections, typos, misspellings, but
nothing to do with the hybridizing chapters.
You should have never made the original critcism of Kohlein's book without
being prepared to back it up with some facts. Obviously that's too much to
ask. If you have some knowledge that others don't, then I can't understand
why you would keep it secret. I'm forced to conclude you don't know what
you're talking about and that there is indeed nothing wrong with the
hybridizing information in the book in the first place. If that's not the
case then perhaps Bill Shear will be kind enough to jump in since he also
mentioned these "problems".
