Abstract
Ab initio calculations on the water dimer show that bond functions greatly increase the basis set superposition error (BSSE) at the correlated level. Counterpoise corrections for BSSE mostly undo the effects of including bond functions, and this holds even for very large basis sets. Also, bond functions seriously affect the location of potential minima for the water dimer, at least until counterpoise corrections are made.
