In this all Open Lines show, much of the discussion on this show was political – having to do with a speech that Pres. Clinton made, and gridlock in Congress. A caller discusses a weird sound in San Diego that many people have commented on. He not only heard it but felt it. The caller mentioned that he was interviewed by Linda Moulton Howe; in fact, in an earlier program, Art played the interview. One caller expressed concern that the new $100 bill was able to be tracked.

Art reported on how in Texas, the equal protection provision of the constitution was cited by a judge saying that even illegal immigrants must be included in the state's school system. But the judge then stated that if any damage could be shown, the ruling would have gone the other way. In Art's opinion, crowded classrooms and overburdened facilities constitute real damage.
