Abstract
It is shown that there is no justification for the recent attempt to treat an exploding wire as a liquid metal in calculating the electrical resistivity. An improved version of this calculation leads to a discrepancy of a factor of 12 between liquid-metal theory and the exploding-wire experiment.Keywords
