...armored limousine, one of two Government gas guzzlers kept in California, Carter headed next to the studios of KNXT-TV for a locally televised reprise of his successful national call-in program. Sitting on an uncomfortably high stool, he fielded about 30 questions from a live studio audience of 200 and, via five TV cameras, from passers-by at suburban shopping centers, sidewalks and the U.C.L.A. campus.

Trailing long galleys, the writers and other people on late duty constantly consulted the busy man on the high stool: Director of Computer Composition Robert Boyd.
