True. This explains why it was left among his unpublished papers at MTP. It 
was only recently transcribed by the Berkeley editors. That phrase I quoted 
from line 13 ("CAyNSwgMjAx") was once thought to be a reference to 
beer-drinking ("Can swig my Jax") but it is now firmly established that it 
reads "Can swing my ax." Unlike Judith, I've left out the full MTP textual 
apparatus.
