The exchange of two massless neutrinos gives rise to a long-range force which couples to weakly charged matter. The form of this force was first computed by Feinberg and Sucher using dispersion-theoretic techniques. Here we give a simple derivation using Fourier transforms. Our result agrees with that of Feinberg and Sucher.
