1 have been given very long answers. I am assuming you
2 want narrow answers; is that true?
3 Q. Well, that wasn't my question, but why don't
4 we stay on that --
5 A. I mean, I could discuss that at great length.
6 I didn't know if that's what you wanted me to do.
7 Q. I would like you to give a fair answer to my
8 questions and I'll let you answer your questions and if
9 follow up, I would ask that one at a time for the court
10 reporter.
11 I would ask that you answer the question
12 fairly and I'll try not to interrupt you. And then if
13 you would do your best to answer the questions, and as I
14 said, if you don't understand it, let me know.
15 A. Right.
16 MR. SCAROLA: Excuse me. I'm going to
17 interrupt you for just a moment. Pardon me.
18 There is this page that was placed in front of
19 me, and I don't know whether this was intended as
20 a delivery of something.
21 MR. SCOTT: No. You had asked for a copy of
22 the entry from Professor Dershowitz's book when
23 he made reference to it. I said I'd give you a
24 copy in the last deposition, and that's it. We
25 made a copy of it.
