It's like a arhang type section inside the building. This being the primary roof area up here. I don't understand thato but I get the feeling like there's a cubical type building on the interior of this building. Like an alcove type thing building there. I don't really know what I'm saying. It's just what it looks like. #6.5: Well, you've got some kind of room within a room. #19.5: Yeah. Exactly. #6.5: But, this is much smaller. #19.5: That's the impression I get.

Like a thatrix of squares with just lights, you know, lights on the front and that was ..... we'll call the first one an A, the second one B, and B was in one of the rooms with the hostages. Then I got an impression of what looked like some kind of small set of railroad tracks that went in a Y shape, like this ..... somewhere in the room..... like mineature-size. Call that C.

That sort-of affect. We'll call that E. I don't know what any of that stuff is. #6.5: Okay. How did you feel about the situation the hostages found themselves in? #19.5: 1 don't get any feelings at all from the hostages. You know. It's like, it's like I'm a very remote observer this timeg for some reason. I just don't get anything at all. #6.5: Okay. Where were the Iranian guards that you saw? #19.5: They were all down in this area. I'll mark it on 1 and 2 as area 3. #6.5: So they are down in the area 39 huh. #19.5: Yeah. #6.5: How were they controlling the movement of the hostages? #19.5: 1 didn't see anybody moving. You know. There was like very little activity. #6.5: Well, what would prevent the hostages in area 2, for instances, to go to area ....... you got two area 3s here? #19.5: Yeah. They were on top of this overhang, and they were under the overhang. #6.5: Okay. But, .... get back to my question ! how would the hostages in area 2 be prevented from going over-to area 1? #19.5: Well, they are two separate.rooms, and they would have to go through the area occupied by the guards to do that. #6.5: They weren't locked in those rooms, were they? #19.5: No. Ldidn't get a feeling for any doors at allf and I can't, I call this whole overhang area a vault type affect.
