On Women If someone asks me if I'm married, I tell them its none of their business. Believe me, I was a rebel. Oh the girls -- they didn't like it. They made snide remarks to Van. "My husband wouldnt let me do that." WELL - what man is going to let me do anything! Someone said once, "When I got married my husband made me sign his name." I said to myself: "My heavens, what man can tell you to do that." She's not compelled to sign anyone's name. One time I knew a supreme court justice of the U.S. He used to come out to Boulder. I was sorting things out. He would say: "Eve, you are so right!" With that sort of endorsement I KNEW I was right. At the very beginning I had Eve Drewelowe on my passport. Thats the way
