11:42 a. m. - December 15, 1972
Sidney Gresson/Dr Kissinger
G:
How are you, Henry. Are you still alive and kicking?
K:
When you deal with two maniacal Vietnamese parties, if you
aren't kicking, you're dead.
G:
Did you seeFlo over there?
K:
No, she's too bright, I'm afraid.
G:
She's too bright, but why are you discriminating against her?
K:
Because all she needs is one tiny, little fact and she puts the
rest together herself.
G:
Henry, look when we talked a few months ago and we were going
to get together and then you probably got screwed up running
Middle East or something. I still want very much
to talk with you. It has nothing to do with current affairs.
K:
No, I know what you want you to talk to me about.
G:
I'd like really to sit down and talk to you if we don't even go
further than that.
K:
No, we can't go further than that.
G:
No. whatever convenient time you have. Whatever is convenient
to you.
next
K:
You want to come down sometime/week?
G:
I'll fly down Monday morning, if it's any good.
K:
Well, let's have lunch on Monday.
G:
All right.
K:
Come to my office and we can go to the Sans Souci because the
food here is unbearable,
G:
Well, all right, I'll pick you up at your office at 12:30?
K:
Make it at 1:00.
G:
Look forward very much
