On Saturday night, according to Hoekstra, Negroponte left the head table to deliver the news. "We're going to do it," the DNI told Hoekstra. Hadley told Hoekstra the same thing in a separate conversation.

They aren't released then. Just an intent to release. OK, so we wait for how long now for the details to be worked out?

I just heard this on Brit Hume's show! Great news! NOW we have to lean on media-types to report on this.

I would guess there are some FReepers who can read them. If so, they better share. :-)

Know your enemy:

"I love John Negroponte most of the time, but he's still a bureaucrat," says Hoekstra. "What's fast to him may not be fast to you and me."

I heard an interview with Stephen Hayes a while ago. He said it is a paper trail SEVEN MILES long! So I think that 489K boxes is accurate.

The average banker's box -- usually the type used for documents -- holds perhaps 3000 documents. At 11 inches long each, that's somewhere around 2700 feet worth of documents. Roughly half a mile. So a trail of documents 7 miles long is going to be about 14-15 boxes. Nothing close to 489,000 boxes, or even 48,000 boxes. Or even 48 boxes.

Far more likely is that its not 48k boxes of documents, but rather 48,000 actual documents. At 11 inches per document, that's about 44,000 feet of documents, or somewhere over 8 miles of docs. Figure that some of them may be memo-sized rather than 8.5 X 11, and there's your 7 miles.

As O Reilly says...if these papers aren't read by a contestant on American Idol....the average voter will not know
