S: I Thought you handled that fine.
K: Could I call you back in a few minutes ?
S: Sure
6:35 pm 2/16/70
S: The reporters didn't ask the questions that they will ask after reading
it tomorrow. There are a lot of questions on general purpose forces and
Communist China -- foreign aid and economical stuff will follow
K: Do you think they were positive?
S: I hung around to see what they thought. The serious types were impressed.
Those that don't understand it, don't like it. There was a high seriousness
by those that count. I wrote (?) the highlights and I understand that the first
two pages were off the record. But it might be what a writer sees.
K: He has stronger feelings about the military side.
S: Timmons, N
,
and Zeigler will need it first thing in the morning.
K: We appreciate your help -- x both professionally and personally.
S: You say that only to make my heart pound.
K: No, seriously. You are the only cynic I like. And I don't think you are,
deep down.
S: That's right. I'm a sentimental slob like you.
