In a recent paper, Farrar and Biermann argue that there is a strong
correlation between the direction of the five highest-energy cosmic-ray events
and compact, radio-loud quasars. This Comment shows that this analysis contains
several inconsistencies and errors so that the significance of any such
correlation is certainly greatly overestimated and perhaps nonexistent.
