A response is made to the Comment in Ref. . The discussion centers on two approaches to evaluate the nuclear response in the continuum. Both approaches approximate the damping mechanism and can be considered complementary to each other since they can be used to study different aspects of the nuclear response. The issue of self-consistency between the mean field and residual interaction is addressed along with a discussion concerning the nature of the damping in the continuum. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
