85. The existence of the overall energy integral is related to the second Stillinger-Lovett moment condition: F. Stillinger and R. Lovett, J. Chem. Phys. 49, 1991 (1968). The separate existence of the individual energy integrals may perhaps be a delicate point, although in the present theory they are convergent.
86. m is the net background uniform counter-charge density required to make the macroion subsystem well-defined. In this respect both RDH and the present work differ from Shih and Stroud (Ref. 50).
87. Although the concept of a spinodal line does not survive in a rigorous treatment, it does indicate a transition in the kinetic behavior for the phase separation process: K. Binder, Rep. Prog. Phys. 50, 783 (1987).

118. Experiments sometimes suggest that charged colloid particles can be attracted to a like charged planar surface (Ref. 12), which might at least partly be due to a polarization attraction due to the ionic strength gradient (but see also Refs. 75 and 78).
