I can tell you from use of the same “knife” that many states are besieged with what appear to be separate organizations that harass them with ballot initiatives — but are ultimately all related to two organizations and two key individuals. I’ll likely be using the same “knife” on an investigation in progress; given the name of the organization and their agenda, I will bet good money I can find them entwined in the same infrastructure.

Unfortunately, though, once you get past a firewall, there’s not a lot that can be “cut out” with the “knife”. I think the email situation is one of those.

Just FYI, many of the redbooks are available now online. I don’t know if that applies directly to Lotus Notes or not, but I run across them quite frequently when I am doing research.

I perused some of ‘em last nite, go again this evening. For any techies interested they are here (about midstream through era of ARMS setup at that link).

No one has come up with one of all these emails that you presume are being hidden, or have been deleted. No one says they saw one.

Where to start? It seems like intentional obfuscation but its more likely cognitive dissonance and if so, why engage? And here’s dessert for anyone needing a deliciously ironic shit stain topper,

but give the plot theories a rest. They aren’t that smart.

Thus I’m putting my hopes in C92.

I’m thinking that Mrs P’s methods might come in very handy at the moment. With a bit of googling you can check them out. There’s something called the “Swiss Army Knife” method. And you could also take a look at how she has used her methods and what she found out about some companies. So as not to leave too many tracks here, I won’t say more. I think C92 is very familiar with this as well, if memory serves.

There are other nits-nats that we haven’t looked at either, like the cellphone antenna system installed in Congress by a firm for which Abramoff lobbied, that is also alleged to have installed a secure T1 line into the White House. We have nothing that links this to the missing emails problem, but if the possibility exists for a company owned by foreign agents to install technical equipment in Congress and possibly in the White House, there are still other potential security breaches through which emails could be disappeared.

I would not give the Archives too much credence as yet; remember that the National Archivist was replaced in a manner not dissimilar to the replacement of U.S. Attorneys. Why replace the Archivist? (should check the timing on the departure, too…)

jodi (216) — Blogger.com is very easy to use and free, too. If you don’t like the kind of conversation going on here, why don’t you start your own damned blog. Or are we getting too close for your handlers’ comfort? That’s what I think every time you demand we stop.
