WEDNESDAY 17 FEBRUARY 1971

48th day - 317 days to come


Called Felicia to tell her about never having the first two pages of THE INFERNAL BINARY MACHINE. She was very appreciative.
Jerry Dougherty had called when she was out. She later tried to call him but didn't get him. Maybe it has something to do with GO SEE. (The decision form Continental Airlines was delayed because of the California earthquake.
