At the Stone household, the Stones are hosting a party for academics. The door buzzes, and Mrs. Stone goes to answer the front door. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She’s confronted by an Air Force officer and an Air Force MP.
“We’d like to see Doctor Jeremy Stone, please,” says the officer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Well, I’m Mrs. Stone, and we are having a party,” explains Mrs. Stone. “May I -” She looks to the street, where an armed Air Force sentry is walking next to a waiting car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Does that man have a gun?” asks Mrs. Stone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“What is this?” asks Mrs. Stone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Please call Doctor Stone to the door,” says the officer, sternly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Otherwise,” says the MP, “we’ll go get him, ma’am.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Just a minute,” says Mrs. Stone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
