The present note being a reply to Huw Price's [1994] response to my criticism [1994] of his original paper [1991], the reader will sense that the point of diminishing fleas has been reached. So I will not try to detain him or her long, nor will I try to score a knockout blow against Price, which would only invite another riposte, etc. What I do think would be useful at this stage is to suggest to the interested reader who wants to check whether Price has indeed found a cost-free explanation of the radiative asymmetry, which part of Price's account needs a close, and sceptical examination.
