56. We recognize, of course, that inhomogeneous broadening is not the only potential mechanism for line broadening in clusters. For a discussion of approaches that also permit inclusion of homogeneous effects such as motional narrowing (but not the collective character of the dielectric response), see Ref. 26.

68. In an ergodic macroscopic system there is no real difference between the behavior of different members of an ensemble and the behavior seen in any one member. Given a reasonable time interval, even a single ensemble member will evolve so as to sample virtually the entire ensemble. However, in a small system studied over microscopic times, these two concepts can in principle and, we suggest, in practice, be quite distinct.
