You're right. I found an audio file of the first hour. First he gives a detailed account of how she found him. Then 30 minutes later he says she didn't know who he was and that he could've been as "poor as a church mouse". That's hooey. If she wasn't told by her sister who Art Bell is then I'm sure she's internet savvy enough to google Art Bell. After all, she's savvy enough to set up web conferencing. You have it exactly right - "he's trying to sell that fantasy to himself". If you want a copy of the mp3 file Freepmail me.
"Love is A Many Splendored Thing"
****
It's the April rose that only grows in the early spring,
Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living,
The golden crown that makes a man a king.
Once on a high and windy hill,
In the morning mist two lovers kissed and the world stood still,
Then your fingers touched my silent heart and taught it how to sing,
Yes, true love's a many-splendored thing.
****
Let's let Art alone to see what is.
Love to all from here at the nursery............
****
Maybe this is what has me in such a fine set of mind ................
