On Pencil Color
A: Thank you, Mr. B for talking time out from your day to speak with us here on the show. It is a pleasure to have you with us.
B: You are welcome, Mr. A. It is wonderful to be here again.
A: Mr. B, I'd like to get started directly with a question, if you don't mind.
B: Certainly. I am sure your good listeners would appreciate
that. We are here for them after all.
<brief pause>
A: Mr. B, can you tell me the color of this pencil?
B: You know, that is an excellent question you ask. I believe
that pencils are of great importance to our culture and our
nation. And I have always felt that pencils are superior in many
ways to any other writing instrument.
A: But with respect to this pencil and its color, Mr. B. What would you say?
B: Well you know Mr. A, it is not really color that is important.
I would ask, rather, how soft is the lead. We all know that only
with a soft lead can you make a good impression. I strongly
support soft lead, and it has always been my belief that the people
of this country deserve to know the softness of the leads in their
pencils. I am committed to giving them the tools they need to answer
that question.
A. Thank you, Mr. A. It looks like we are out of time for today. It has been pleasant speaking with you. Thank you again for taking time out of your busy day.
B. You are welcome, Mr. A. It has been my pleasure.
