Wednesday
CLAUDE (spoken)
September 12th. Crisis counselors are called to Gander Academy
BEULAH (spoken)
The plane people — they’re exhausted — but they don’t want to sleep.
And we’re standing there, ready with all that food. But that’s not
What they wanted. They wanted phones
JANICE (spoken)
1:45 a.m. — Six phones are put on tables for
The Plane People to use free of charge
— lined up alongside the road by the Newtel Building
BEULAH (spoken)
An hour later, they set up 20 more phones
CLAUDE (spoken)
An hour after that, there’s 75 phones and computers
With internet — all being used ‘round the clock
