Thanks for your comment. The way it worked at the archives the times I went was that you had to show them your notes on paper they gave you. I think. It's been years. If he hid his own notes, it shows he was knowingly hiding archival material. Otherwise he would show all his notes so they could look for their stamped papers.As I explained, archival material is not all typed and important-looking. It is often a paper torn out of a secretary's steno-pad. What he did was probably not inadvertant. If he had been careless but shown them his notes at the check-out, the guards would have found the archives. He has to say he did this accidentally. I doubt this, but I think that he just didn't want to take all those notes and then write up his speech for the 9-11 Commission at home without the documents.
Really, he should have been given temporary copies or something. He was an important official who was asked to testify in Congress. Why should he be taking notes like some undergraduate in the pre-computer age? That is such drudgery. Hw can't say that because he would have to admit he stole the documents to save himself work.
Okey Doke.
What's the explanation for "discarding" some of the documents?
What's the explanation for sharing the info with the Kerry campaign?
