Recently the quotation "Ich weiss jetzt was ein/kein Engel weiss" got cited
frequently. The urgent call from <J.Wexler> for a comment from a real german
source woke me up. After all this discussion even I got confused. However I
believe the correct version is "kein". The quotation origins from the believe
that angels know most things going on in the world. A person using it wants
to express his/her excitement about something he/she discovered,
that he/she believes is not known to anybody else (including angels).

But may be I'm mistaken and there's angel who knows it.
