[0:01] Yeah.
[0:01] It's Mr. Ehrlichman, Mr. President?

[0:03] Thank you.
[0:05] The President?
[0:06] Thank you very much.
[0:06] John.
[0:07] Yes, sir.
[0:07] I just talked to Bob about the idea that I had, and you might discuss it with him.
[0:11] It's an idea I had on this, having some of these people thank him for what they did in his demonstration.
[0:18] And so I gave him all the facts.
[0:20] Okay.
[0:21] You want to run over him?
[0:22] Sure.
[0:24] Whatever you and he recommend.
[0:26] All right.
[0:27] And I will be...
[0:29] ready to do something, anything you want to do around 2.30.
[0:33] So if you want to... All right, sir.
[0:35] Get right on it.
[0:35] I think at 2.30 and then maybe have to see you and George at 2.30 and do these people at 3 or vice versa.
[0:41] Vice versa, probably.
[0:42] All right.
[0:43] Either way.
[0:43] Very fine.
[0:44] Thank you.
