Edward TennerGUEST
I, I am now apparently the leading reclining chair scholar of the United States.

Edward TennerGUEST
If anybody else knows more about reclining chairs, please, please, uh, uh, add a comment because I, I, I want to meet you.

Edward TennerGUEST
But the last great expert, one of my informants, uh, sadly passed away a few years ago, and I suppose I am the, I'm the only person left.

Edward TennerGUEST
But one thing I noticed about, about, uh, Weil am Rhein is that, uh, first of all, there was a really beautiful, compact little town, and then the Vitra factory and museum were a few miles away, but there was, uh, there was a regular little bus that took me from my hotel to the, uh, to the museum and back, so I, I did not need to rent a car.

Edward TennerGUEST
I don't think there is anywhere in the United States where I would've found a comparable service.

Just why was there a smoking lounge on the Hindenburg, on the Zeppelin filled with hydrogen gas?
