He certainly was in discomfort and he ... was certainly in fear of choking. It all happened, gosh, it wasn't even a minute.

He was slouched over with his hands across his stomach area. I thought he was going to be getting sick and ... he stood up straight and was able to say help.

It is under assault as never before as a result of the mindset of 9/11, in which fear, rather than good public policy, has taken over. The Fourth Amendment says, I think quite clearly, that each of us is clothed in a sphere of privacy, and that the government cannot pierce that sphere of privacy unless it has a good reason for doing so.

It was a deliberate calculated offence which put fear in the recipient and caused disruption to an RAF facility.

I don't know if experience is a huge factor. I just think that the fear of the unknown is gone. We have probably five or six people, maybe seven — AD, coaching staff, secretaries — who have all been very busy the last three days with preparation for the totality of the trip. So it helps as far as organizational skills go. You know what to expect. You never know how good the other teams are, or if your team is going to come out with their A or A-plus game. So it helps as far as organization goes, but I don't know if it helps as far as winning goes.
