title: Agreement now the norm.
abstract: Many immunologists hold that complement is baffling or irrelevant or, most conveniently, both but a recent meeting(∗) emphasized that complement is interesting and that it may be important, even if only as an elegant model system. Moreover agreement is now the norm. The biochemistry has now advanced to the point where the outlines of the reaction mechanisms are agreed and work is under way with detailed analysis and model building.
