Humanities and Social Sciences
Leonard continues his interview - comments on heat of summer, his gratitude towards the help of other people. Brief segment on pet cemetery, like on #37 tape. Robert Plum delivering water is interesting visually, but generator sound from the water pump makes audio less than ideal; Salton Sea fish dead. Little Abner is with son and holds up photos from past band in Oregon.
