Don't know the answer (perhaps Roger does), but I'll never forget my disappointment on hearing the news. I was a college student working at a Kayo gas station over the summer, and I heard the news on the radio in the attendant's booth on a warm August evening. I knew it was a dagger to the country's heart, and never respected Nixon again, though I do believe his resignation was the result of a CIA coup.
