In their recent paper ``Faraday rotation of the cosmic microwave backgroundpolarization by a stochastic magnetic field'', Kosowsky et al. Phys.Rev. D71,043006 (2005) have commented about our paper [C.Caprini and R.Durrer, Phys.Rev. D65, 023517 (2002)], in which we derived very strong limits on theamplitude of a primordial magnetic field from gravitational wave production.They argue that our limits are erroneous. In this short comment we defend ourresult.Comment: 2 pages, no figure
