Yes, thanks, I see that now.  (And I thought I was reading carefully.)

But might I suggest that the line:

    If every condition evaluates to nil, so that every clause fails,

nil.
be placed after the line:

    Then, if condition is non-nil when tested, the value of
conditionbecomes the value of the
cond form.
