Abstract
A "Loschmidt demon" is exhibited which effectively reverses the spin-spin relaxation of a system of interacting magnetic dipoles in a strong external field, thereby demonstrating that this system does not approach internal thermodynamic equilibrium in a time as was implicitly recognized by Philippot.
