Fundamental errors exist in the above-mentioned article, which attempts to justify previous erroneous claims concerning signature change. In the simplest example, the authors' proposed ``solutions'' do not satisfy the relevant equation, as may be checked by substitution. These ``solutions'' are also different to the authors' originally proposed ``solutions'', which also do not satisfy the equation. The variational equations obtained from the authors' ``actions'' are singular at the change of signature. The authors' ``distributional field equations'' are manifestly ill defined.
