I think that was the wrong interview. You may want to contact ABC or 20/20
itself to get the tape or the transcript. Newsweek (Sept. 10) quotes from it:

"The actress admits she and God used to chat--inside her head--using a special
secret language. Asked to recall some of their lingo, the happily hetero Heche
shared that 'Quiness' means God. And 'it is a good fortune to be here' would
be: 'Aka funka too nadonna East Adone.'"

I think East Adone is in Texas somewhere but I'm not sure.
