We review five different derivations that demonstrate that the Salpeter
formula for the plasma corrections to fusion rates is valid at the center of
the sun with insignificant errors (~ percent). We point out errors in several
recent papers that have obtained a variety of answers, some even with the wrong
sign or the wrong functional dependence.
