Following the advice of Professor Zel'dovich, I will begin with two platitudes – first, when we consider the implications of the counts of radio sources, we must look at all the counts of radio sources at all frequencies; second, when we attempt to evaluate the implications of the source counts, we should use proper cosmological models and not rely on the local Euclidean model.
