What I said was that he had not had a drink for about a <br /> year; the term sober was never used by me. Also, and <br /> adamantly, I did not say that Mr. Carvalho is now undergoing <br /> treatment for a drinking problem. This statement was "created" <br /> by your reporter and was never a part of my conversation with <br /> your reporter. <br /> In fairness to Mr Carvalho and myself, I request that a <br /> retraction be made or this letter be printed at your earliest <br /> convenience. <br /> Very truly yours, <br /> . ^ ; .
