The possibility is reexamined that multiple absorption spectra of QSOs are due to gas in the disks, coronae, or halos of intervening galaxies. Using the same catalog and parameters as Burbidge et al. (1977) but assuming that the cosmological constant is approximately equal to the critical value instead of equal to zero, it is found that the discrepancy of several orders of magnitude between the predicted and observed multiplicities reported by Burbidge et al. (1977) is drastically reduced and that the observed multiplicity distribution is theoretically obtainable. The intervening-galaxy hypothesis cannot be rejected on the basis of this test.
