Nimoy: Is it true? We have no credible Evidence. It defies Reason.
Dad: If we search, we will find it; and when we do, it will be
earth-shattering to everyone as it was to me.
. . .
Voiceover: SOME THINGS ARE TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. ARGUABLY, SOME OTHER
THINGS ARE TOO GOOD NOT TO BE TRUE. AND THIS THING WAS SO BAD AS TO
MAKE IT NECESSARY.
. . .
Nimoy: When did it happen? And where?
Dad: In 1970. Between the Towns.
Nimoy: And if we could re-create the conditions, the factors that
brought it about . . .
Dad: I think it is improbable that this could ever be cooked up again.
. . .
Voiceover: AS THE INTERVIEW CONTINUES, THE GREAT MINDS DEBATE:
. . .
Dawkins: It’s too much to swallow!
Zacharias: Exactly.
Dawkins: It couldn’t be that bad.
Vanni Fucci: I’m telling you I had a large portion for breakfast just
this morning!
. . .
Voiceover (Dr. Oates): IN TERMS OF PURE PSYCHOLOGY, THE MIND CANNOT
DISMISS A WORK THAT IS SO VERY GOOD, OR SO VERY BAD. THE SUBJECT
TURNS THE THING OVER AND OVER IN HIS MIND AGAIN AND AGAIN – WHETHER IT
BE A PIECE OF MUSIC, A POOR TRAIN OF LOGIC OR EVEN A BADLY COOKED
MEAL. I FEAR THE CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING DAD’S CLAIM WILL BE WITH US
A LONG, LONG TIME.
. . .
Join Dad and his guests this weekend as CwD presents its first
documentary presentation, “Coffee with Dad – In Search of the BoJo
Restaurant’s Recipe for Chicken Chow Mein.
