"In open session, Burton made the following demand of Skelton: 'I see a number of people in the audience that I anticipate will be making a disturbance. And if this occurs during the testimony by our honored guests, I hope that you will be very firm and get them out of here'....A frustrated Skelton responded, 'You don't have to lecture me.
