The summary of André Saine’s answer to Dr. Steven Novella first post debate question was written to address Dr. Novella’s concern that the four-part answer was too long to read. This summary should take no longer than 30 minutes to read. Even though, it was sent multiple times to Dr. Novella, he never acknowledged receiving it and never responded to André Saine’s detailed and comprehensive answer to his question. How can we interpret Dr. Novella’s sudden arrest in communication other than the arguments and facts presented in André Saine’s answer are too incongruent with Dr. Novella’s worldview? It is interesting to note that skeptic Joe Schwarcz had also quit abruptly the post-debate written exchange he had initiated with André Saine.
