#01: Ah..interiors look like squares, "H" shaped in the
center, "C" shapes to the outside edges.
#66: Okay. These "H" shapes and "C" shapes are ground
patterns or buildings, patterns?

"C" shape buildings to the left and right, move down

#01: Large, white block house shape, some kind of dome a
little bit further south, ....oval.... That's all I
see of buildings.
#66: Okay. I'm of course having trouble at the angle of
the elevation when you look south like that.
Looking south from the top of the "H" shaped
building, within a 1,000 meters.
#01: .........See "U" pointed away, shape building's like
a "U", bent ends like a horseshoe.
#66: Um, um.
#01: Pointed away from me.
#66: Okay, let's turn and look the opposite direction.
#01: Large, block white square.
#66: All right. We have a mirror reversal of directions
here, so when I tell you then to face, what you know
as north, then you see the flanking "C" shaped
buildings and the large white square?
#01: Yes .
#66: All right. All right, I want to orient this group
with one more situation. Describe the main entrance
to this group of buildings.
#01: ...Running straight out from the "H" shape, there is
a triple arch, main road through the center, but no
cars. ......The (mumble) has got a square top to
the triple arch, it's beyond the white square, some
kind of gate or fencing to the left, right.
#66: Okay.
#01: It's very squared, the arches.
#66: All right. Now, I want you to remember so you can
draw. We have main street and we have some sort of
entryway through arches and a big white square. And
we have "C" shaped buildings left and right. And
then an "H" building. I want you to remember that
and then I have one more verification.
#01: A lot of light concrete too.

#66:
Yes, it appears so.
#01: Okay.
#66: Now this will be a movement exercises for
geographics. From this group of buildings,,. grids
southeast, describe. Z`w' b
#01: A row four buildings, rectangles. Appear to have
some connecting piece.
#66: Okay. From 50,000 feet.
#01: .....Ah....See, I see a ..(mumble) train station and
park,...water, some kind of water.

you have anything else.

#01: Okay, this is just drawing #1. I'll label it a
#1. I've labeled what's a main street out here and
how it comes in through a arched area . And goes
around a white square shaped object and there's
some kind of a black opening, I'll call it a black
opening. What it is, is just a black rectangle
against the white concrete like, "C" shaped
buildings and "H" shaped building. And they are
very distorted views of what the buildings look
like. I got a feeling like they're much larger and
you can just define the "C" part, you know like the
legs of the "C" and the legs of the "H", like the
"H" building is much wider and thicker. But I'm
not sure which side the "H" is formed on, it's just
#66:
an "H" shaped building.
Okay, in terms of numbers of stories,
are these
#01:
single story or multi story buildings?
Oh, they're multi story. They're like
5 or 6
stories, somewhere between 4 and 6.
#66:
And then when I ask you what was to the southeast
of this?
#01:
There's a lake with an island in it, a
lake or a
#66:
pond with some kind of an island in it.
Okay. Anything else?
#01:
That's all.
