organized and how long a time she had to go over it. Which is why she didn't release other material which would have been damaging. Someone who was as good at her job as she was could easily do what she did. The media made it sound like it would have been impossible.

Eg, a good librarian can point someone to exactly what they ask for no matter how big the library.

I don't question her HUMANITY, she explained why she did it and her reasons were very noble. Patriotism? I don't know what that is anymore.
