 WASHINGTON (AP) - It seems history won't rest until someone fills in that 18 1/2-minute Watergate gap.

Their mission: Use the latest technological tools to find out what Nixon and his chief of staff, H.R. Haldeman, discussed during those missing minutes on the tape recording of a June 20, 1972, meeting. The meeting came three days after the break-in at Democratic Party headquarters at the Watergate Hotel by burglars linked to the president's re-election committee.
