- notes
- CD-ROM on this chapter: Transcriber's note: This was not a complete tape. Side A and B do not match up, and the end of the side B ends abruptly.
- Editors: at 44:01 side A changes into side B. There are something missing. It seems these sides are from same interview (same voice of interviewer, same subject of talking). Last question, 15, is not on audio, which sounds complete. Where is it from?
