Interstellar atomic carbon has been sampled over 33 different paths with visual extinctions ranging from about 0.15 to 1.5 mag. The trend of C I vs different forms of hydrogen is found to be steep and somewhat erratic. It is concluded that the observed behavior can be explained by strong differences in the responses of C I, H I, and H2 equilibria to physical conditions, together with marked variations of these conditions within different interstellar clouds.
