So, listening to it again, he says the two hg's are 50 years apart he mentions 1970 and 1973 as being the date, but doesn't mention which HG. In any case none of the math jives, cause if the second HG is built in 1972, then that would make the fist HG in 1921....and if indeed he died last month at age 90 according to the obituary found on google...makes no sense .
