There is an interesting paper by van Duijneveldt et.al. in
Chemical Reviews 94, 1873 (1994).  They argue rather strongly
that counterpoise correction is the way to go.  They are also
"forced to conclude that this new definition of BSSE [Davidson
and Chakravorty] is superfluous, and one may only hope that its
introduction will not further increase the confusion surrounding
the CP recipe."  It's a spirited review!
