Abstract
Chatterjee et al. [Phys. Rev. C 44, R2249 (1991)] report that the shar ing of dissipated energy in the Ni-58 + Pb-208 reaction at E/A=6.5 MeV is not influenced appreciably by the direction and magnitude of net c harge (and mass) transfer. We point out that neither this conclusion n or one arguing for a correlation between mass flow and excitation ener gy division is supported by the data and analysis presented in their c ommunication.
