And the phone rang and a man said, would you take a call from the Archbishop of New Orleans?
And I said, yes.
And while I was waiting, I thought, you know, I'm a reformed Methodist.
What do I call an archbishop?
I remembered from a play, I think, Your Grace.
So he came on and he expressed great condolence.
And he said, how can I help you?
And I said, I'm not a Catholic, Your Grace.
And he said, I didn't ask you that.
What can we do for you?
And I said, well, Pan Am virtually are holding me prisoner here in this hotel and won't let me go to the crash site.
He said, what?
You need to go there.
You need to see the good work of all the emergency service workers and what's happened there.
He said, I can't understand that.
He said, just a minute.
I'll call you back.
Ten minutes later he called me back and he said, Pan Am is sending a car for you and will take you and your friend to the crash site.
I said, how did you achieve that?
He said, easy.
