Abstract

We thank Dr Poon for his interest in our recent paper. In his ‘critique’ he addresses four points, apparently aiming to reconcile the observations reported in our two recent studies with his own view on the control of breathing during exercise (Poon, 1987). It is important to recognize, however, that many of his contentions are based not on actual experimental data such as we reported in our present or previous papers (points 1 and 3 below) nor on other experimental evidence found in the literature (point 4) but rather on his own personal conceptions – many of which, we believe, are not only highly questionable but are not even reasonable (points 1 and 4).
