The fragility (the abnormally strong temperature dependence of the viscosity) of highly viscous liquids is shown to have two sources. The first is the temperature dependence of the barriers between inherent states considered earlier. The second is the recently discovered asymmetry between the actual inherent state and its neighbors. One needs both terms for a quantitative description.
