Review: The second author and T. J. Rivlin [Analysis 3, 355-367 (1983; Zbl 575.41006)] sought an optimal rational interpolation process that was Féjer-stable at all sets of nodes \bf x: (x0,..., xn). They established the proposition that, if \bf x in (0,n] and n \geq 2, then maxy in (0,n] \left{[sumnk = 1 1/|y-xk|] / [sumnk = 1 1/(y- xk)2]\right} \geq (log n)/300. In this paper, the authors strengthen this result by showing that when n is large, there is a point y in [0,n] where the numerator exceeds a constant times log n and the denominator is bounded.
