The meetings, conducted partly on the record and partly off the record in a 13th floor conference room...

Credibility questioned right there. What building has a 13th floor? Builders usually number the floors ...10, 11, 12, 14, 15... because nobody wants an office located on the 13th floor.

The link to the public part of the tape is on this thread.

No one is denying the existence of the tape.

The 13th floor of the Times building is legendary as the home of the NYT’s columnists.

Correct-I’ve never seen one-when I was about 6-7, and on the annual Christmas shopping trip to the city-we lived on a ranch-with my mom and aunt, we got into an elevator in a building and when I saw the floors numbered 12 then 14, I asked where the 13th floor was-my mom and aunt said it was believed bad luck to have a 13th floor-first time I’d ever thought about that.

"What building has a 13th floor?"

I've been in plenty of tall buildings (spent most of my life in Chicago) and I've never seen one without a 13th floor. I thought the "no 13th floor" thing was an urban legend.
