I guess -- if you say so.  I have no clue as to what *you* mean by
"internal relations."  But I would still like to thank you very much
for taking the time to read my post up to that point.  I'm almost sure
you were the only reader who did.  Honest, even I had a hard time
re-reading what I typed.  :-)

My increasingly unreliable memory.

It's in a letter Marx sent to his friend Dr. Ludwig Kugelman in July
12, 1868, letter than I memorized in Spanish (not in German) back in
1982 or 1983.  It also has the most transparent description of the
notion of labor value I've ever read.  I recited the whole letter back
to my political economy teacher at the Universidad de La Habana.  It
worked.  I got an A+, final grade.  :-)

Last time I checked, the Marxism Archives didn't have it yet, which
mystifies me, because it is really a key piece in Marx's
correspondence.  Anyway, I guarantee you that the flavor is exact in
what I quoted.  Your money back if it turns out that I distorted
Marx's conception of "inner relations" or "internal relations" or
"internal connections" or "inner relations."  Again, in the part
between quotes.  I believe Ted's complaint above was about the
paragraph that followed it, which was my take on the quotation.
