Though Mayor Daley still has plenty of political clout, he seems nevertheless curiously diminished. With Nixon in Washington, Daley will no longer be receiving those friendly phone calls from the Oval Room of the White House, nor will he be sleeping in Abraham Lincoln's bed on Washington visits. When Humphrey called on the mayor last week, he may well have noticed a symbol of change in Daley's plush office on the fifth floor of city hall.

...condition of total body-mind cut off has been aptly labeled "mind-fuck." The boy had felt this before going to Esalen. There were nights when he would lie awake in bed, unable to sleep, his whole body shaking, because the thoughts flew through his mind in a frenzy. He could not stop them. Harvard had started his mind going, and he could not stop it. It was like HAL the computer, and it threatened to destroy...
