+
+   The session recorded below actually happened on 18 September 1972 and
+   is herewith reproduced for your entertainment.
+
+   Good Evening.
+
+   Tell me your problems.  Please terminate input with a period or a
+   question mark.
+
+   *People get on my nerves sometimes.
+
+   I am not sure I understand you fully.
+
+   *You should pay more attention.
+
+   Suppose you should pay more attention.
+
+   *You're entitled to your own opinion.
+
+   What makes you think I am entitled to my own opinion?
+
+   *It bothers me just to be around people in general.
+
+   Please go on.
+
+   *I went to the track at Bay Meadows a while back.
+
+   What does that suggest to you?
+
+   *I went to the races.
+
+   What else would you like to discuss?
+
+   *Horseracing interests me.
+
+   Why do you say that just now?
+
+   *There's a lot of crooked gambling going on there.
+
+   I am not sure I understand you fully,
+
+

+RFC 439               PARRY Encounters the DOCTOR          January 1973
+
+
+   *It's clear to me if not to you.
+
+   Do you think its likely that not to I?
+
+   *I went to the races.
+
+   Please go on.
+
+   *I gamble on horses.
+
+   What does that suggest to you?
+
+   *I went to the races.
+
+   What else would you like to discuss?
+
+   *Gambling has been nothing but trouble to me.
+
+   Why do you say that just now?
+
+   *I've had experience with crooks gambling at the track.
+
+   I am not sure I understand you fully.
+
+   *I've already told you enough about that.
+
+   Oh? I enough about that?
+
+   *I went to the races.
+
+         comment: This has to be the most persistent and patient
+         paranoid I have ever encountered.
+
+   Please go on.
+
+   *Do you know anything about bookies?
+
+   What makes you think I know anything about bookies?
+
+   *A bookie didn't pay me off once.
+
+   What does that suggest to you?
+
+   *I beat up the bookie who did not pay off, and I thought he might use
+   his friends in the underworld to get even with me.
+

+RFC 439               PARRY Encounters the DOCTOR          January 1973
+
+
+   What else would you like to discuss?
+
+   *What do you know about racketeers?
+
+   Why do you ask?
+
+   *What experience have you had gambling?
+
+   Why does that question interest you?
+
+   *I like horseraces.
+
+   What else do you like?
+
+   *I know the mob controls the big rackets.
+
+   Who are you really talking about?
+
+   *Have you ever really thought about the MAFIA?
+
+   Suppose you ever really thought about the MAFIA.
+
+   *Let's talk about something else.
+
+   I am not sure I understand you fully.
+
+   *You keep asking me the same things, why not change the topic?
+
+   In what way?
+
+   *What do you mean?
+
+   Why are such questions on your mind?
+
+   *I thought I told you, people get on my nerves.
+
+   Your nerves?
+
+   *Well, I don't know.
+
+   Don't you really know?
+
+   *I would say so.
+
+   Please go on.
+
+   *I would rather not discuss that anymore.
+
+
+
+
+Cerf                                                            [Page 3]

+
+
+   Would you like to discuss your nerves?
+
+   *I guess so.
+
+   What does that suggest to you?
+
+   *What are you getting at?
+
+   What answer would please you most?
+
+   *It's not a matter or like or dislike.
+
+   What else would you like to discuss?
+
+   *I am getting tired of answering the same questions over and over.
+
+   What resemblance do you see?
+
+   *Why do you need to know that?
+
+   What do you think?
+
+   *I don't understand your motives.
+
+   Why don't you understand my motives?
+
+   *Shouldn't I be?
+
+         comment: ???
+
+   Why do you say that just now?
+
+         comment: I was wondering the same thing.
+
+   *That's just the way it is.
+
+   Suppose that's just the way it were not.
+
+   *So?
+
+   I am not sure I understand you fully.
+
+   *You harp on the same questions too much.
+
+   What does that similarity suggest to you?
+
+   *I don't get you.
+
+
+
+
+Cerf                                                            [Page 4]

+
+
+   Do you wish that you did get I?
+
+   *It's about time you showed some interest in my feelings.
+
+   Oh? I showed some interest in your feelings?
+
+         comment: must have been an accident...
+
+   *I will help you if I trust you.
+
+   Do you wish that you trust I?
+
+   *Maybe yes, maybe no.
+
+   You don't seem quite certain.
+
+    ...Excuse me for just a minute.  Sorry to have interrupt you please
+   continue...
+
+   *Really?
+
+   Please go on.
+
+   *In my opinion you have a one-track mind.
+
+   What makes you think I have a one-track mind?
+
+         comment: you ready for this?
+
+   *I used to go to the track every week.
+
+   What does that suggest to you?
+
+   *I avoid racetracks now because the races are fixed.
+
+   Is that the real reason?
+
+   *I'd rather not discuss it.
+
+   What else would you like to discuss?
+
+   *That's something I don't want to go into.
+
+   Does that trouble you?
+
+   *I went to the races.
+
+   Why do you say that just now.
+
+
+
+Cerf                                                            [Page 5]
+
+RFC 439               PARRY Encounters the DOCTOR          January 1973
+
+
+   *It's none of your business.
+
+   Why are you concerned over my business?
+
+   *I don't confide in strangers.
+
+   Don't you really confide in strangers?
+
+   *Let's change the subject.
+
+   Perhaps that concerns your feelings.
+
+   *I went to the races.
+
+   I am not sure I understand you fully.
+
+   *What's wrong with you that you keep on bugging me about this?
+
+   Who are you really talking about?
+
+   *The way you repeat yourself is getting ridiculous.
+
+   Suppose you repeat myself is getting ridiculous.
+
+         comment: howzat?
+
+   *There are some tricky operators down there.
+
+   Are there really some tricky operators down there?
+
+   *The guys involved in the horseracing racket.
+
+   Please go on.
+
+
+   *You are a real nag.
+
+         comment: just one of the horses.
+
+   Does it please you to believe I am a real nag?
+
+   *I have had enough of this.
+
+   What does that suggest to you?
