Spent almost entire day in meetings with Congressmen on MX—tomorrows the day. Patti is here & I promised I’d meet Dr. Caldicott—the lady is a round the clock anti-nuke lecturer & writer. She seems like a nice, caring person but is all steamed up & knows an awful lot of things that aren’t true. I tried but couldn’t get through her fixation. For that matter I couldn’t get through to Patti. I’m afraid our daughter has been taken over by that whole d--n gang.
