Psychiatrist Donald Lunde, recommended by the defense, agrees that Bianchi clearly went through a repression of great hostility toward his adoptive mother. But a multiple personality? Lunde is uncertain. Part of his doubt stems from viewing the tapes. "At times," he says, "there are serious questions of whether hypnosis is really going on. There's a possibility that Watkins suggested the presence of other personalities. He asks questions early on that provide a kind of guidance. In one tape, he even says, 'If there is some other part of you that wants to talk...
...Court to deal effectively, honestly, and realistically with serious grievances. In light of this it becomes evident why the Iranians had to transgress diplomatic principles in order to proclaim their sovereign rights. They could have initiated procedures for a hearing, but the prospect of unravelling a long, legal red tape simply did not correspond to their fervent need to administer justice. And to dismiss the Iranians' protests as fanatical is to grossly distort the historical conditions which have precipitated them...
...Shoreh, two Western-style pop singers who have been barred from performing in public by the Khomeini regime. Elsewhere in the downtown area, near Mellat Park on a street that bears the nickname "Hippiabad," vendors sell Top Ten tunes on cassettes, blasting out their wares on expensive Japanese tape decks.

...their real disposable income rose 28.5% during the '70s (vs. only a little more, 30%, during the booming '60s). The wealth and variety of things they could and would buy were a wonderment: boats, Winnebagos, hair transplants, facelifts, sensitivity training, hot tubs, snowmobiles, automatic garage doors, video-tape recorders, sound systems, breast implants, tennis ball servers, openly sold pornography targeted to the most elaborate perversions. If an underclass was being left behind in the South Bronx (and the fire in the civil rights movement guttered out), most American consumers lived in a world of far greater opulence, variety...
...Spiro Agnew to resign, Lockheed's worldwide bribery, the office employment policies of Wayne Hays. One of the more bizarre spin-offs of Watergate was its literary industry; almost everyone, good guys and bad guys alike, the Deans, Haldemans, Jaworskis, Ehrlichmans, Colsons and so on, sat down at tape recorder and typewriter and produced books to cash in on the scandal. A headlong rush to excess profits was joined in the '70s by oil companies, sports stars negotiating multimillion-dollar contracts and writers whose most meretricious junk could command seven-figure advances...
