[0:00] That's good.
[0:00] Talk to Billy Graham.
[0:57] And he said that he had a conversation with the chancellor of the University of North Carolina, Charlotte.
[1:02] And the chancellor said that he did not think there was going to be a student reaction to this bombing.
[1:07] There had been earlier activities due to the fact that we had withdrawn forces and had to negotiate on her.
[1:16] I also had a call from Nelson Rockefeller, who was strange to reminisce, and the one I received was the early days of Cambodia.
[1:27] He said that he is very proud as a friend, he asked.
[1:32] He opened his audition and asked me what I had done.
[1:37] But he didn't know anyone else would have done it.
[1:43] I had people sitting there with him, and she was also very proud.
[1:49] He used the word, fabulous, to describe the activities.
[1:54] My guess is that he probably had called Henry and Henry had asked him to give him the call.
[2:01] But it was probably not too bad an idea to have some calls coming in and he gave them support.
[2:07] The calls, the talks with Chris and Julie were
[2:12] Refreshing, both.
[2:15] I had a great time at the moonshot barricade.
[2:20] I was unnecessarily barricaded at dinner time.
[2:24] I appreciated the ride about 6 o'clock.
[2:28] I left and came over to
[2:49] decided to get some relief by eating myself.
[2:54] The closet was closed, so I found half a ham and cheese sandwich and a nice box, which I only left.
[3:06] Had that for dinner.
[3:10] It wasn't totally what had happened.
[3:18] After making a few calls, I'm going to be back.
[3:20] I'm going to be back at a very early hour.
[3:21] I'm going to leave at 9 o'clock.
[3:22] I'm going to sleep until 8.30 the next morning.
[3:24] I won't even wake up briefly tonight.
[3:28] I'm going to have to make some notes.
[3:41] Great.
[3:46] That's the other power handle they have.
