R help - Aug 2011 - histogram not equal to Kolmogorov-Smirnov test; 3-way-nested Anova

Hello R-Help-Team,

I am doing a 3-way-nestedAnova and a very strange thing occurred. My 
"Two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test" (p=0.957) meet the requirement of
normal distribution, BUT if I have a look at the histogram it is 
definitely not normally distributed. I never had something like that and 
I am very confused. I attached the data and my used code; in case you 
are not able to open it or need further information?s please tell me. As 
it is my first nested Anova, it would be very nice if you (hopefully) 
confirm the used code. Hoping you can help me. Thank you very much in 
advance.

Neither the data nor the code remained by the time the message was  
posted. The files need to be named with a .txt extension or they will  
be scrubbed by the server. This is (sort of) documented in the General  
Instructions page: "You can use text/plain as well, or simply paste  
text into your message instead. ". In practice, however, even text/ 
plain formatted messages will be scrubbed if their extensions are .csv  
or .dat.
