We reply to Lee and Mane’s foregoing Comment [ Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 8 089001 (2005)]. In particular, we discuss how an adherence to certain notions of spin-orbit resonance and spin tune can limit the analysis and understanding of phenomena. Since the Comment has very little to do with the main thrust of our paper we take the opportunity to point out the main features of the “proper uniform precession rate,” a concept introduced in our paper and based on the concept of quasiperiodicity. We also respond to other material in the Comment.
