Is the house Heinlein lived in when he gave the split-screen
interview with Walter Cronkite?

They started building the house by September 4, 1966, according to
Grumbles, Ed, renting a house in February 1966 that was fourteen miles
by road, and twenty-six minutes by auto, while it was building. The
house was "finished" enough sometime around July 1967, enough so that
Robert was working in a bleached and varnished study, at a desk. It's
unclear from Grumbles when exactly they 'officially' moved in [See, Cp.
VII, "Building," sub-part titled "Santa Cruz."] but it clearly was in
1967.
The interview given split screen was from North American Rockwell, from
Downey, California (which is in Los Angeles County) with Bill Stout, a
local CBS TV affliate broadcaster, with Robert Heinlein in a studio
setup there (and Clarke and Cronkite back on the Right Coast, wherever
Cronkite was that day). That was in 1969, of course.

David:
Thanks for the info. Back in July of `69, it looked like they
had sent a camera crew to RAH's (or someone's) home. I didn't know
that I was looking at a studio. I do distinctly recall being
infuriated at that supercilious nff Clarke. Rather than blow his
own horn, Heinlein would pay Clarke a compliment. Instead of
reciprocating, Mr. Sri Lanka pompous merely nodded agreement to
Heinlein, leaving RAH's contributions to the space age unmentioned.
Left a sour taste in my mouth that has lasted to this day.

There is a brief mention on screen by Clarke to Cronkite that Robert was
an engineer; but Robert kept reminding Cronkite of Clarke's many
accomplishments as a scientist and futurist. Robert was always very
polite, except when it was useless to be so.
Stover's characterization as Cronkite as shocked by Heinlein's
suggestions that women could do as good a job in space as men is a bit
over the top, in my view. Cronkite, whatever he may have done
off-camera, rolled with the punch, and quicky jumped aboard (how's that
for mixing metaphores?). The ladies usually cheer, properly so, when
that segment is played.

You ought to read Julia Phillips's description of Clarke in "You'll Never
Eat Lunch in This Town Again." You'll love it.

My god, I hope you've copied it, and had it transferred to DVD, or
have plans to. I can do it from an analog VHS copy, for sure.
Although I would bet there's another copy somewhere in the CBS
archives or possibly the Museum of TV & Radio in NYC--the problem
would be getting to it.

As of a few years ago, Museum of Radio & TV didn't have it. Umm, a few

The problem is getting the rights to it from CBS, JT. That's one small
project in the works.
Once that happens, it's very likely other copies will be made available
by us to members.

JT: Find out for me what Yoji's plans are concerning his attendance (you
probably have his e-mail from last year, or I can get it to you) -- I
might be able to get a CD into his hands (what I have is an MPEG) since
he's a board member, and I do *not* want bootleg copies floating around
-- , please; and what a suite (or something), suitable to showing the
interview, at Balticon, will rent for, or what can be made available
otherwise from the Con. ;-) Dale, the secretary of the local club,
wanted us to put together something for programming -- if he hasn't
contacted you about it already. A panel with an AV display of the
interview might work out as one item. Clarke, Heinlein, Cronkite and the
few sentences Stout had work up just under one hour. You can run what I
have off a Mac with Quick Time, but you'll need the hookup to whatever
projection device is available (and there's probably something out there
in Windows land you can use). Please contact Dale (same thing with his
email address) if you'd like to, and let him know you're doing so for
me.
Another panel idea might be on FUTL. We can probably get an autographed
copy by Spider and Robert James -- since both are members of THS -- to
us for a fundraising auction (always fundraising and membership). Please
copy me email on whatever you suggest to Dale, and his responses.
Involve the Washington DC types, Pam Somers, and anyone else you can
think of, please. Email secretary@heinleinsociety.org and ask her to give
you a data membership base for the DC-middle Atlantic area -- it's
probably grown since you saw one.
Thanks. Anyone else?

David: If Walter Cronkite is available, he might have some
influence with CBS to help get this released. I've heard good
things about him and this segment is a good show-case for him.
- Just a thought. -
Also, if you need funds to help this project (the release of rights
from CBS and subsequent copy to DVD) I will start the ball rolling
with one hundred dollars. I know that you (Heinlein Society) take
donations; please let this be one of your 'projects' and I'll donate
this seed money.
I have been hoping to get my hands on a copy of this split-screen
interview with Heinlein for many years now.
I hope that this suggestion is not 'out of line' somehow.
