Correction to recent post

The following was posted from the Shunryu Suzuki lecture archive as one Q & A with two parts. But these are two separate Q  & A. The first questions is from Alan Rappaport and the presenter in the second exchange is not identified. They just said the customary 'Docho Roshi" (docho is the abbot) and were silent.

Student [Alan Rappaport]: Docho Roshi, what are you doing here? 

 SR: Nothing special.

Docho Roshi—[Silence.] 

 SR: Yes, I am here.
