Oct 25, 2011 at 20:53 comment added Bill Johnson In the previous comment, "If $X^∗$ is not HI" should be "If $X^∗$ has no HI subspace".
Oct 25, 2011 at 16:36 comment added Bill Johnson BTW: If $X^*$ is not HI, then $X$ has a separable quotient. Indeed, then by Gowers $X^*$ contains a subspace with an unconditional basis and hence, by James, a copy of $c_0$, $\ell_1$, or an infinite dimensional reflexive space. In the last case, $X$ has a reflexive quotient. In the first case, $X$ contains a complemented subspace isomorphic to $\ell_1$ by Bessaga-Pelczynski. In the middle case, $X$ has a quotient isomorphic to either $c_0$ or $\ell_1$ by combining results of Rosenthal and mine and Hagler and mine.
