Stanley In Space by Jeff Brown

On 74-75:

Strictly speaking, S-- isnʻt the right letter to start 75, even though it leads to the final word of 74. It should be H (from 6 --pronounced "sixth",
or X --if you pronounce 6 as "six"; since itʻs a date, I would pronounce it "sixth".)

But Iʻm not one of those who is always playing from a farther-back posting, calling it "the last CORRECT posting" )

Einsteinʻs God: Conversations on Science
and the Human Spirit by Krista Tippett

On 203:

For those interested in the Mysteries of
Touchstones OR NO TOuchstones. I noticed that
this author (Tippett, not Einstein) has disappeared at least temporarily from "Search". But she could still be accessed through my Wish List listing of the above title. Touchstones however, responds to my brackets with a different title by her, and converts her name
to blue but not her "Einsteinʻs God" title. The apostrophe in the title may be what prevents it; Iʻm used to "search" not doing apostrophes, but was surprised they couldnʻt find her own name in an author search.

Eumeswil by Ernst Junger

#258 doesn't fit. I'm at a loss as to what to do, now.

258 was played on the -S of ". . .Tailors"
in 2 5 6. 257 wasnʻt on the screen yet

257 evidently also played on 256, and came in one minute ahead of 258.

258 > 259, 259 > 260, and 260 > 261 are okay.
You can play on the final L of 261 or on
the "last correct" one, the E of 257.

Starting from #261
