[Vision2020] Four engineers were arguing . . .

While Tricky Dick Nixon was in the White House lying about bombing 
Cambodia, I was a first-year resident of the tenth floor of Theophilus 
Tower, wherein I heard this joke.  My first semester roommate was a 
civil engineer.  The joke was funny.  Fall semester next year I was in a 
different room, and my former space was occupied by a former Green Beret 
medic who had served in that combat theater while Nixon was publicly 
prevaricating.  His stories about where he was, what he saw, and what he 
had to do absolutely were no joke, and not funny at all.  Maddening 
memories still effective. The verb at sentence end reminds that Hank 
Kissinger was gravel-mumbling in Nixon's ear.
