    "abstract": "It is shown that, contrary to the claims in a recent letter by Haldeman and\nBeggs (PRL, 94, 058101, 2005), the branching ratio in epileptic cortical\ncultures is smaller than one. In addition, and also in contrast to claims made\nin that paper, the number of metastable states is not significantly different\nbetween cortical cultures in the critical state and cultures made epileptic\nusing picrotoxin.",
