Hi Gilbert, My replies to your points are interspersed below:

He has views about the following that are at odds with yours: 1. The so-called Goan grandmother's kaannee, and the associated myth. 2. The so-called mouse experiment that you mentioned, which was supposedly done a few years ago. 3. Your explanation that the immune system is involved. 4. The role of surgery and immunology in cancer treatment. 5. Cautiousness and caveats pertaining to making generalized assertions about cancer treatment. Do I have your permission to post his response on Goanet? Cheers, Santosh P.S. By the way, I would really appreciate it if you would provide me with the original reference for the so-called mouse experiment that you described. Can you do that, please? _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
