It was the SAME taxi -- the driver of which said it was his honor to wait and didn’t charge anything. Letter dated July 18, 1972 from Swann to Swanson: "It was indeed a pleasure talking with you last evening, and I am greatly appreciative of your time. Enclosed are the several items we talked about. I hope they are interesting to you. Again, if there is anything I can do to support your work, please ask. Best wishes for the summer in Portugal and your future." Swanson telephoned to say I was too fat. She gave me HER macrobiotic diet. I tried it for ten days -- and ended up so weak I had to crawl on hands and knees to the toilet. But I lost about 25 pounds. Gloria went to Portugal for the rest of the summer. I gained about 25 pounds. When she returned, we thereafter talked at least once a day by telephone. Swanson was later to become the biggest jewel in my espionage system. She knew everyone who was anyone, and everyone wanted to know her if they were no one or whatever else they might be. But she was a very big gun -- and I utilized her only if and when all else failed. Her interest in psychic matters was profound and well-grounded. She really knew how to play HARDBALL. I learned from her. She terrified everyone, and wouldn’t be nice if they were terrified. If they were not terrified, she could be as sweet as plum pudding. She couldn’t keep a house boy or maid for more than five days. This drove her to destraction. SHE was magical.
