it was friday november 17, 1978 when jim jones finally agreed to see the ryan group. after landing in a small village a few miles from georgetown the group was taken the rest of the way in the back of a temple dump truck. it was after dark by the time the reporters finally arrived. too dark to see anything except what jim jones wanted them to see. we see people lined up in a big pavilion welcoming us to come in. they started with the music and thinking, like a welcoming party. at that point is kind of what you thought, everyone is happy. you can see the videotape. the people were happy. they had some very good musicians out there who did some really good music. washington post reporter charles krause.
