TelCon: 10:00-9/16/71 Mr. Kissinger/ Mr. Peterson K: What is this god damn story about this pulling out. What is that crap? P: Is that the story. I haven't seen it, are we pulling out. K: We were on the verge of approving it. P: Alright I will find out for you right away. Incidentally, I am having a group of outside experts tomorrow. Hormats has been invited and will keep you posted. I am writing a memo to the President right now we are behaving a little bit like we have put the patient on the table and have cut him open. K: If I were there I would do what they are doing. P: Good. Incidentally, have you graduated from our morning group. K: No, I am coming again, but they are a little boring. P: We have not lost our status but our prestige without you being there. K: OK - I will be there.
