who have to be at that execution
to see that the execution
conforms with the law.

:26:08
Being familiar with
all of the four systems
that we use,

:26:11
I would much rather
be electrocuted,

:26:14
providing that you were gonna
electrocute me on the system
that's in Tennessee.

:26:20
I don't want to be
electrocuted in Virginia.

:26:23
I don't want to be
electrocuted in Florida.

:26:26
I don't want to be
electrocuted in Alabama.

:26:29
I don't want to be Mr. Tafero
or have my eyeballs
blown across the room.

:26:34
I'd like the execution procedure
to go smoothly.

:26:42
I have often been asked,
generally by some type
of adverse party,

:26:47
whether I sleep at night,
or how well I sleep at night.

:26:51
My answer
is always the same.

:26:53
I sleep very well at night,
and I sleep with
the comforting thought...

:26:57
of knowing that those persons
that are being executed
with my equipment,

:27:02
that these people
have a better chance...

:27:05
of having a painless,
more humane
and dignified execution.

:27:20
Been drinking coffee
for a long time,

:27:23
since I was, probably,
around four or five years old.

:27:28
Yes, it's still true.
I love coffee.

:27:30
I think it's running
through my veins.

:27:36
Coffee never
bothers the ulcer,

:27:39
but I remember,
must be 15, 20 years ago
when I went to the doctor--

:27:42
He was asking me, "How much
coffee do you drink a day ?"
" About 40 cups. "

:27:46
So he's writing it down.
"How much coffee do you drink
a day ?" " About 40 cups. "

:27:50
He says, "How much coffee
do you drink a day ?"
And I says, " About 40 cups. "

:27:53
He says,
"Look, I'm not kidding. "
I says, "I'm not either. "

:27:57
He said, "Oh?
How much do you smoke a day ?"
I said, " About six packs. "
