Response to ‘‘Comment on a proposed method for finding barrier height distributions’’ [J. Chem. Phys. 103, 1235 (1995)]

Abstract
A rebuttal is given to a criticism of an approximate method for the determination of the distribution of energy barrier heights in liquids and proteins. It is argued that the one-dimensional counterexample used in the critique violates clearly stated assumptions in the derivation, which also appear to hold in nature. The method is shown to be accurate in a more appropriate one-dimensional test.
