hearing committee.
"I was further told that recording of the hearing would be by
tape recorder. I find that neither of these two things are true.
"In addition, I want it recorded that I have requested several
times that this hearing be open, and the chair has refused.
The Attorney General's Office has asked to be allowed to send
an observer to this hearing. Their request was denied,
but they were promised a complete transcript of it."
"OK," Henry brushed aside Diana's observations as if they were
of no import, and continued, "we'll call our first witness."
Henry rose and went to get the Lyle Stone, chair of the
Nutrition, Embryology and Radiology Department--NERD.
Lyle was seated directly opposite Trenchant and was sworn
by the stenographer. Under questioning from the committee,
he gave his name and position.
Dr. Lyle Stone was a man totally driven by ambition.
He treated people on two levels. If he needed something from you,
he was most decent, even kindly; if not, he ignored you.
Quick to anger, he rarely checked facts. He took good care
of himself, and at the age of 58, he regularly worked out
at the gym and was seldom sick.
