Abstract
Our J. Chem. Phys. 103, 1152 (1995) article described synthetic data generated from the coupling model, which was analyzed in the framework of mode coupling theory (MCT). The purpose was to demonstrate that someone unaware of how the data was generated could carry out an MCT analysis and find some, though not necessarily all, of the features to be in conformance to MCT. The work thus served as a caution against fixation on only some features of short time experimental data, since this can lead to premature conclusions that MCT has been verified. Due to the limitations of experiments on real materials, most data either does not allow a test of all MCT predictions or, as has been found in polymers, is in disagreement with MCT. These points, which have evidently been missed, are reiterated in the present communication.
