To the Editors:

In "Are emotions moral?" (January 2004), F. H. Buckley says the opposite of what he means when he says, "In the language of statisticians, the danger of false positives is greater than that of true negatives"; he means, of course, "false negatives." There is no danger whatever in true negatives.
