Strict Confidence
Let’s talk. I heard the news yesterday. He called and told me himself. You know he is very high up and can be relied upon. No, I do not have it in writing. No, I did not tape the conversation. This is big. This is a game-changer.
Remember how long we have waited for news like this. Everyone is going to explode when they find out. But right now, we can not let a word leak out. We can say nothing. This is between us only.
I know you have the understanding to say nothing about this to anyone. He told me not to tell anyone. He told me how important it was that no news escaped before the right time. I know you will not tell anyone, and I know I can rely on your discretion.
I am only telling you and Paul, of course. Paul is extremely loyal. Paul does discuss these matters with his wife, but she doesn’t know any of the players. I am sure she will say nothing to anyone. In my excitement, I mentioned it to Gene. If he says anything to you, let me know.
Let’s talk now. Remember you can not tell anyone.
