BEGIN TAPE.
… [inaudible]... Hunt was always drinking. Always drunk. Sometimes pills. Sometimes just Scotch. But the big man loved drinking Scotch so that was fine. He loved any kind of [inaudible]...
The night, the night in question, he wanted to talk about FUBELT. Things in South America were well you’ll find out about that at some point I’m sure. International machinations were always a source of [garbled]…and for once, we’re not here to talk about politics. No...We’re here to talk about his eyes. That was the first night I saw it happen.
