Additional information

I thank Sanford M. Jacoby for helpful comments on an earlier draft. Bruce E. Kaufman provided a commentary on that draft as well disagreed with various points. I suggested he might want to write a formal reply, but he preferred simply to provide the comments, some of which are reflected in this version. I thank him also for his comments. Ultimately, opinions in this review are mine alone.
