PRIVATE JOURNAL ENTRY OF DR. HENDRICK JOLIET EASTERMAN

LATHE 2 is barreling forward at an inspiring pace. The influx of funding was so unexpected that I was momentarily afraid it was the result of some sort of accounting error.

Baranczyk is insisting on my sharing test results with the PAPERCLIP team at Los Alamos, especially with regard to this "Skinner Man." It's clearly just a nightmare, some subconscious projection of the guards, or the nurses who attend to the subject's ESOP maintenance and invasive therapy during induced twilight.

But this Wernicke character thinks everything is solvable in dreams. To a hammer the world is made of nails. To a Nazi the world is made of nightmares.

One of the Sleep Room observers had the gall to suggest this Skinner Man is a reflection of ME, simply because he overheard Reagents calling it "Doctor Skinner." Ridiculous. I am like a kind father to my patients, and they love me as much as I respect them.

The correlation of heart attack and stroke with the Skinner Man's appearance is only that."
