...tape. The particles arranged themselves in conformity to magnetic imprints previously induced on the tape by electronic signals in the original recording and erasing processes. Thus the imprints could be seen with the naked eye and photographed. Bolt also noted that the signals had been analyzed by oscilloscope, fed through frequency spectra devices, and put into digital computers. Seventy minutes of the tape, which also contained a non-Watergate conversation between Nixon and John Ehrlichman, former Domestic Affairs Adviser, had been played back for listening...

The injection, which blocked the protein's activity, also caused the animals' learning rate to lessen markedly. Other findings tend to reinforce this conclusion. Protein-deficient rats learn much more slowly than well-fed animals. Also, protein-deficient children from poor families habitually trail better-fed, middle-class children in intellectual development, even when the children receive the same education...
