One thing I was wondering about is why this doctor in New York would write to you about reading the letter, because there'd be questions about why.
The only guy that I think would possibly be studying the subject
You see, I have to be impeccable because he may have said, well, he may have done something.
He may have, you know what I mean?
Nobody, Bob didn't, I'm sure.
But this son of a bitch is capable of doing things that we don't like about him.
Right, right.
The letter was written to you in a very precise way, huh?
All right, good.
Okay, bye.
Bye-bye.
