Abstract: This note gives a new proof of the `operational extensionality' property of Abramsky's lazy lambda
calculus---namely the coincidence of contextual equivalence with a co-inductively defined notion of
`applicative bisimilarity'. This purely syntactic result is here proved using a logical relation (due to
Plotkin) between the syntax and its denotational semantics. The proof exploits a mixed inductive/coinductive
characterisation of the logical relation recently discovered by the author.
