Wagner's but she has a particular identification which I think would be of interest to all of you in a particular way see if you can figure out how she uses skin-diving particularly as a means of making a library does she trained people in skin-diving and take them beneath the sea and show them what's going on with a flora and fauna no that's a four down and six to go into sir mrs. Wagner are you one of those hopeful people who try to find buried treasure down under the sea no that makes it five hundred five to go mrs. Kilgallon no mrs. Wagner you have said that you have been connected with the cinema uh have you ever done any skin diving before the camera yes have you done it in a sort of substitute way rather than as yourself have you been the skin diving alter-ego of a famous person yes I think that's it I'm gonna fly logs over and congratulate and we connected you'll be Connecticut this was a tough one mrs. Wagner is what we call her a stunt skilled skin diver Dorothy which is what you will really define and then the Lloyd Bridges no no an actually different shape I can see that better much better listen this is Wagner works for zip productions and zip productions is a great many people know because of television produces two skin-diving programs I believe one is the equi knots and the other one is see see hunt and it's in these two television programs mrs. waiter does the stunt skin diving for the the women leads and in the pictures and I must say that this has been a great art efficient and good fun and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and thank you the same to you and I'll take up skin day formidable a formidable panel that is not as - it can do with the second challenges Oh will you enter and sign in please boots Gator miss or mrs. mrs. mrs.

Gator is salaried and deals in a product and let's begin to general questioning with Martin Gable mrs. Gator could I use your product yes you could it could I use it more because I'm a man than if I were a lady no this making difference one done you go miss Francis sorry got a cold is it a product that we'd have in the home well you could have it at home if you could get it yes I is it a product that has been or is alive with the lava Rotter with your permission mr. Gaeta by our terms of reference we would not describe it as a product that is miss miss pencils we speak with animals rings I got it - Donna taking over Peter - Melissa this is very computed when you said that mrs. Gaeta that was alive you just meant that it was a live product that it had nothing to do with the fact that the product a tanning time had actually breathed and been living is that correct yeah and the term live simply meant that it was a lively item is that what you love did a big fella big seller yes ma'am uh is this product in the absence of Steve Allen bigger than a breadbox no no that's three down and seven to go mr. Geller is this product anything I could hold in my hand yes you can hold in your hand if I could get it you'd be up yes uh knowing women as I'm sure you do do you think I'd like to get it I think you if I got it would I wear it where it could show poured out at sixty going to gable is it decorative rather than useful no five dotted five to go vis friends is this a product that if I were able to I might have it in my pocket or my bag you could but it would stick out no on that 6040 go vis to services gate it is this product very valuable what is your term very valuable give us a dollar value go platinum go you mean I've made of a rare metal but would you give it a dollar value to just to help us out you're gonna give me an O John anyway you mean yeah yeah really go Vince Gill gala did we get a dollar value John no we didn't then it didn't want to volunteer but you bet the gold in the Platinum bit though mm-hmm wouldn't show I don't see how I can be such a lively seller if it's hard to find could we have a clarification on that well actually we did not I believe ever declared it was hard to find she keep saying finally well but this would suggest the lively character of verbs oh you mean it just be right dr. shell that's dead one could use it you but you wouldn't you wouldn't bet that I couldn't find it tomorrow if I went shopping would you oh you could find it if there's no gambling allowed on television program we have to 675 to w1 now the don't you see John this is very important to us because we're going to be seeking some rare thing it's gonna be something you know don't do that because it's been described to you in mrs. Gators terms is a lively item ergo it is so popular with the public that it's likely to disappear from the showcase almost as soon as it arrives but if you were determined to find one I'm quite sure that by traversing New York City a few times back and forth and doing it all the stories we could life of dr. Kinsey is empty is this solid rather than liquid yeah this is solid resin uh is it something that likely would not be folded you can't fold it now that's and it sticks out is it long and slender rather than chubby oh when they're yeah it's a fairy wand okay no dirty cognizant yeah I wasn't really asking have we established is it edible no but to go miss Freneau z11 be particularly interested in this at this time of year yeah actually because of this particular season I can see where a high degree of interest would be generated by the need we all have to find new gifts and such you know to give away christmas time has it anything to do with money no let's check out another this was fun mrs.

Kilgallon Oh with this product ever be used I withdraw that uh is this product wholly or partially of metal yes uh could it be used at the construction of anything yes it could is it in fact used in the construction of anything I think with your permission we will say you must be a little bit careful as to the exact meaning that you're going to give to this answer we will give you a yes to that answer but you could misconstrue the answer the particular product that you are involved with uh can be used without being used in construction you know what I mean can be you know by itself this is what we meant to convey that it is an elemental part of construction is what I meant to convey Jews in concern skin it's an elemental part of construction but is not used in Tombstone when it is used in construction in other words if you are going to use it it would be an integral part of what you were constructing is that a fair statement mr. Phil yes but by implication at least it is for our friends product is not used in the construction business well now this is the thing I was trying to tell Dorothy you must not miss screw this construe the answer it is involved in construction but it's not necessary a tool of construction does that answer I'm sure it does John because they did a very sincere effort to be clear I realize that it's just that in the muddy mush of what I call my mind I'm a little murky I'm sorry but I have to throw edges we've run out of time to the this is one real tough one actually mr.
