The news he had to tell me was not good. The reason that his phone had rung and rung when I called was not that he and Inna were not at home. but that their phone had been disconnected. Under any circumstance it is serious when the Soviets cut off a refuseniks phone. Disconnecting the Meimans phone is profoundly more serious because Inna is so terribly ill. Imagine being cut off from medical assistance because the government does not want you to have a phone. I implore the Soviet Government to cease harassing the Meimans and permit them to emigrate to Israel.e
