90. I've been wondering about that.

Especially because of all the noise about not using a classified server. Regardless of whether it was classified, someone had to share it inappropriately for it to go anywhere. Capt Crozier didn't leak this to the press. Who did? Somebody decided to sacrifice him to shut him up and it backfired bigly.
