HEATHER:Mr.Hobart,please feel free to elaborate on anything you like.
I want this interview to feel like a conversation.
RICHARD:I'll do my best.
HEATHER:Heather Vialo,WBNN,reporting from Richard Hobart's office.
Thursday,October 12th.
Richard Hobart,you're a highly respected and very popular attorney for the State.
RICHARD:Thank you.
HEATHER:Isn't that extremely unusual for a public employee?
RICHARD:I don't know.There are competent civil servants,who do a good job.
We don't hear very much about them in the media though.It's too bad.
HEATHER:Sometimes the media discover a white knight.Is that how you feel?
RICHARD:No.I feel that people greatly appreciate
when their concerns have been addressed.
HEATHER:Are you going to run for public office?
RICHARD:I'm not running anywhere at the moment.
HEATHER:All right.Are you considering entering a race?
RICHARD:I consider any good opportunity that comes across my desk.Don't you?
HEATHER:I certainly do.
HEATHER:Who do you think your opponent will be?
RICHARD:Have I said,"No comment"yet?
HEATHER:Not in so many words.But you're good.
It's very difficult to get answers to some of my questions.
RICHARD:What can I say?
HEATHER:"No comment,"evidently!
YVONNE:I am exhausted.Are you?
NANCY:We have been working almost three weeks without a break.We deserve a day off.
YVONNE:A day off?Honey,we don't have time for a nap.
NANCY:Do you want another cup of coffee?
YVONNE:No thanks.I've been drinking so much,it's losing its effect.
NANCY:You know what?Forget the coffee.
Forget the nap.We need to get our blood moving.
NANCY:Come on,take deep breaths.Do you remember when I quit drinking coffee?
YVONNE:Yes.You were a monster.
NANCY:Hey,I'd been drinking six cups a day when I quit.
Then,when I had quit for...oh...eight months,I started drinking it again.
And those first cups...wonderful.It was almost worth quitting.
YVONNE:Please don't do it again.I can't take your withdrawal symptoms.
NANCY:Let's try a little yoga.
YVONNE:Oh god.What if we can't get out of these positions?
NANCY:Take nice,deep breaths.
YVONNE:I can just hear it on the news:"
"Two Cambridge women had frozen in yoga positions,
when their husbands found them tonight."
NANCY:Deep,cleansing breaths.
YVONNE:"Doctors at Boston Hospital have been trying to unknot them for six hours."
NANCY:Feel your energy.
YVONNE:Feel my energy?Nancy,I can't feel my legs!
