brother and his wife.
K:
Oh, you were at that
D:
And they think that you are traveling too much.
K:
(laughter)
D:
That's why he said he was really much more thinner than you are.
And he said, "Well, I have some responsibility and he's just traveling
around the world."
K:
(laughter) Somebody asked him why he didn't have an accent and I did
and he said, "Because he's the Kissinger who listens.'
D:
(laughter)
talk along those lines.
K:
Anatol, I called you -- I just got in.
D:
Yes, so I imagine.
K:
And I will see you tomorrow.
D:
Yes. When do you want me to come?
K:
Actually, I think I'm free for lunch. Are you free for lunch?
D:
Tomorrow, yes.
K:
Why don't you come over here for lunch.
D:
Okay. Will be fine with me. One o'clock?
K:
One o'clock. But what I wanted to do is to see whether I could tell you
the following tonight because time is of some importance.
D:
Yes, I understand, so go ahead.
K:
We received a somewhat threatening message from Hanoi and the
situation is this.
D:
Yes.
