  "I tried," a woman's voice. 

  The timers had ticked down to the last seconds before people who'd volunteered not to be in or out had finished up in the Resource Center turned Campus.  So when a community leader was put on the also timed schedule of answering questions about the new exciting thing "this one" came up with and opened the leather portfolio...
