(However, the emergence of Personal Reality into the marketplace soon resulted in an increase in the number of letters and calls that we’d been receiving. Requests for personal appearances also mounted. We’re no longer into that activity for a number of reasons; yet when the host for a Miami, Florida, radio show called Jane early this morning [September 30] about the possibility of a taped interview, she impulsively suggested to that rather startled individual that the tape be made then — and so for half an hour she exchanged with him a free, unrehearsed dialogue about her work for later airing.
