Abstract
It is pointed out that Kondo-effect rare-earth compounds with insulating ground states must, except for a small probability, be mixed valent. The lack of low-energy magnetic correlations and the optical properties are discussed in a mixed-valent model. The curious properties of FeSi are also discussed.
