I got an impression of like ... ah ... I was looking through walls and there was a ... a group of three rooms interconnected, a vault type door, and these folks were-ah-where these two "X's" are in this room, and they were... there was a lot of file cabinets and dust in this room.

I don't really have a feeling for much furniture in this room, for some reason. (Mumble) an open room with some ... ah ... you know, furniture accouterments, like a couple chairs, couple small tables. That's really about it, not much to sketch. #14 Ah ... you describe some type of comml area. #19.5 The impression I had of a comml area was ... ah ... Page 5.

And back here, against the wall, I get a-the impression of like some racks, just a corner of some equipment racks; that's what made me think it was a comml area. And ... ah ... you know the standard clipboards hanging on the wall. There was some kind of equipment cabinets here. I don't know how to spell shredder. And ... ah ... there was some boxes too that were ... ah ... on the ... scattered on the floor here, which somebody was in the middle of doing all this and ... ah ... didn't get through.
