The day after Dr. Hew Len arrived to my area, I drove over to meet
with him. I found him sitting at a table with two retired Mexican
women who seemed to be hanging on his every word. He motioned
for me to come over. I got some coffee and started to sit in the chair
beside him. He stopped me and asked me to sit in the next chair, one
more chair away from him, but across from the two ladies.
