...1994)

Curl modes are produced by non-linear lensing effects, but these are very small (Bernardeau et al. 1997).

... negligible

Moreover the slope of number counts in our I-band is ${\sim} 0.3$ , which makes the magnification effect very small (see Moessner et al. 1998 for an application of the effect to the angular correlation function).

The enlarged error bars were computed from the estimation of our B-mode analysis, which will be presented elsewhere.

... agreement

although in Maoli et al. (2001) we performed a fit in the $(\Omega_0, \sigma_8)$ plane while here we measured the allowed area for the product $\sigma_8~\Omega_0^{0.6}$ , i.e. fixing the $\Omega_0$ exponent to 0.6.
