This is a transcript between Ford and Sadat. This conversation has little to do with the peace process and more to do with technology, "Can you hear me now?"

Great work. These pictures are also framed and on display in the main building at Epping Forest Yacht Club.
Thanks, BenSays.
This is a transcript to the toasts the evening of the dinner. It was held in the San Jose Country Club. Sadat makes a grave and serious error ;) by saying the St. Johns and Nile are the only two rivers in the world that flow North. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if that bit of info. was passed on to him by a random elementary school teacher.
Easier to read on the link:

The type is really small on these "xeroxed" pages, so I didn't read them in its entirety. I'm not sure if it has been mentioned here, but Gerald Ford's son, Jack was a student at Jacksonville University a few years before this article was printed. Also at this time the Rev. Billy Graham's daughter was also a student at JU. Just a bit of Jax trivia.
And also the M/V Jehan al Sadat was a steam ship in the service of Egyptian Lines named after Anwar's wife, Jehan. It called on the ports of Jacksonville, Savannah, Charleston and Wilmington. On one of its first voyages it docked at Blount Island and I was personally involved in loading it with irrigation pipe destined for Egypt. We had charted the entire ship and had a serious problem when the entire load shifted portside due to poor loading by the stevedores. We worked around the clock, feverishly, to keep the ship from rolling over and sinking.
In the early 1980's Jehan accepted an adjunct teaching position at the University of SC. A scandal ensued when it came to light that she was paid $10,000+, a class, plus expenses, plus a salary to teach. These folks were well connected along with the Sha of Iran as well and his Jax connections, too.
