Hi Appy - Well, it's true enough that I've forgotten much more detail than I remember about the Clinton administration, but I see a quote from the Fiske report which specifies that the keys were found in Foster's pants pocket (the article elsewhere mentions right front pocket) http://prorev.com/foster.htm.

Have you ever met a fellow FReeper in person? I had the pleasure to attend a FReeper rally on the mall in DC in the 1990s -- "March for Justice" it was called. It was a fine Saturday full of fellowship and a good lineup of speakers. The next day, a few of us took a tour of Fort Marcy Park. I took the Chris Ruddy book with me and a bunch of the folks signed it, using their FreeRepublic user IDs. I'd list them here, but the book has been in a box since my wife and I retired and moved to a much smaller home with little shelf space for books. That rally was the first time I heard Amb. Alan Keyes speak. I was delighted to vote him for President in the Republican primary in 2000, and was especially delighted when I learned in 2007 he was running again. I continued to support Dr. Keyes after McCain had accumulated enough delegates to win the 2008 nomination, and was again delighted to cast my presidential vote for Dr Keyes as a write-in candidate in 2008 general election.

One thing I didn't leave in a box was the joint statement of candidacy that Dr. Keyes and I signed in 2008 for the purpose of having the write-in votes for him count in Virginia that year. That document is hanging on my office wall, along with a photo of my Dad and a photo of Bonecrusher Smith, who's one of my new friends and business partners (does anybody really retire any more?).
