In response to the comment made by Dr. Shirakura {\it et al} (cond-mat/0011235), we explain that their scaling forms of the order parameter distribution are inadequate. We then present an appropriate scaling form of the order parameter…

It is believed that the $\pm J$ Ising spin-glass does not order at finite temperatures in dimension $d=2$. However, using a graphical representation and a contour argument, we prove rigorously the existence of a finite-temperature phase…
