Bob,

`       I'm spastic, too, and notice that my muscles cramp easier and are often
sore, but I usually write that off to my sedentary lifestyle as well as
being over weight. We heard about the Disney sell-off up here. It's scary.
I know the
religious right wing is agin' lots of things, but making money never seemed
adversive to them before? Maybe they were trying to make a statement.

        Yes, I knew Tom. In fact, I believe he was one of the subjects I
interviewed for my dissertation. I did not know him well. I understand he
went
to UT after I did.
