Even if FBI Director James Comey had 100 agents reading collating and considering the 650,000 emails in the new investigation into Hillary Clinton’s handling of classified material, it is hard to see how this much material could have been properly digested and done justice in the ten days he had to work on this investigation.
But even if he did have these agents completely dedicated to this new investigation the numbers say this was a Herculean task that does not pass the smell test.
Research shows “The average college graduate stops 75 times to read each of his 100 words. Great compared to the 3rd grader, but slow and boring, and inefficient.”
http://www.selfgrowth.com/articles/HOLMAN1.html
Assuming that each email is one hundred words (which is might be a low number) that comes to 65 million words to read. FBI agents are college graduates and most are lawyers; but it is hard to imagine them speed reading through material as critical to the nation’s wellbeing as these 650,000 emails.
If we allow for turnover time, handling these emails, whether printed out in the worst case or on a computer screen at the best, the time we can reasonably assign to reviewing each email has to be two minutes for those considered frivolous and much more for those immediately deemed important. Anyone who has done this type of plodding searching research, requiring sifting through mountains of words, knows this is the case.
Reason says, some even the shortest emails of fifty words, might require an extended period of say three minutes to weigh their contents for relevance in a larger context.
Thereafter those deemed suspicious would require a “Stop the presses” conference which would eat up more time. When such an inevitable stoppage occurs everyone at the table – another logistic impossibility – would necessarily have to stop and listen to the finding and consider whether what was just found is valuable to a pattern he or she is mentally building given the emails before him/her.
The average number of words on a page in a novel which presumably has a coherent flow and is therefore easier to read and digest, is 300 words. This means the equivalent of 21,000 pages of flowing text which is not broken by changes in subject and mental construction to be weighed against possible federal law violation.
Using the most generous allowance for Comey and his FBI team to have reexamined the 650,000 emails involved in the new investigation, and assuming they worked every minute of every hour they were at it, the crew worked for 14,400 minutes on this project just reading without interruption for reconsideration, stretching bathroom breaks etc.

The records show the longest known book in the English language is L. Ron Hubbard’s The Invader’s Plan which is 1.2 million words. So the 65 million words of emails are the equivalent of 54 of Hubbard’s books. Does it seem logical to believe they read all that material happened?
Properly investigating this pile of emails would require 100 agents putting in 3600 man hours with no stopping for consultation with other agents when a pattern was detected.
This does not include the coordination of original FBI notes with newly discovered findings.
It is simply not reasonable to believe the FBI did justice to a review of 650,000 emails it had to collate for subject matter and consider in an overview while weighing it all for violations of federal law.
Woody Allen once said this about speed reading “I took a speed-reading course and read War and Peace in twenty minutes. It involves Russia.”

Woody Allen is a comedian; what Comey did is not at all funny.
Comey lied when he stated she was “extremely careless” and the “no prosecutor” would take the case for gross negligence.
The guy has been bought off by the grafter queen.
I think this was the DIMS October Surprise; intended to deflate and dispirit Trump supporters at the 11th hour.
I also think it was an attempted inoculation against things that have yet to come to light.
And what criteria were they using doing their search? Plus, how long did it take them to review the original 30,000 and now they want us to believe that they reviewed 650,000 in less than 10 days? Folks, the legitimacy of our government as it is now comprised is seriously in question.
The Clintons are the American Borgias.
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”
Cicero (maybe)
Comey is under tremendous pressure to inoculate the witch from impeachment (should she be elected).
Rumor has it the NYPD has the entire cache of 650,000 emails in their possession. They need to get them to WikiLeaks NOW.
Comey said he only reviewed the emails to and from Clinton when she was secretary of state. That’s only a small fraction of the 650k. He completely ignored the rest. Those might implicate aides in crimes. Furthermore they automatically looked for duplicates in emails from their server investigation. That would leave a much smaller number to read manually.
Comey probably backed off to avoid being murdered.
Comey said they only reviewed emails to and from HRC during her tenure at state. So based on that they ignored the rest no matter how they might implicate her or aides (e.g. forwarded from her aide to another aide originally from her).
And what criteria were they using doing their search? Plus, how long did it take them to review the original 30,000 and now they want us to believe that they reviewed 650,000 in less than 10 days? Folks, the legitimacy of our government as it is now comprised is seriously in question.
If President Trump can’t outright fire Comey he needs to DEMAND his resignation on day 1. He doesn’t even try to hide his abject corruption now, what a joke.
Since the emails presumably include national secrets, I have no doubt the corrupt DOJ as soon as they learned of this have threatened any NYPD officer who saw the emails with prosecution under the espionage act if they did not immediately turn over all copies of the emails to the corrupt DOJ and made them sign nondisclosure agreements.
The fact that Hillary is above the law does not mean the corrupt Obama administration would not put these NYPD officers in prison for years if they kept a copy of the emails.
Loretta probably had her minions rip thru 600,000 emails while Comey's people were vetting the 50,000 residue.

Sounds like a Rigged system.
If you don’t want it out, you tell a Judge it’ll take 43 years, and that’s as fast as they can possibly go, and if you need your Nixon-Grandma cleared, you can do it in a weekend.
The Libs were told Friday this decision was already made.
NBC (Pete someone) and MSNBC were tipped.
.
Maybe it’s just wishful thinking on my part, but I think Comey’s announcement today will not have that big of an impact. Had he made it on Friday, like he did before, the Clinton campaign and the media would have provided non-stop coverage on this. As it stands, he made the announcement on a Sunday afternoon, too late to be included in the Sunday morning news programs. Also, for the past ten days, there has been non-stop, highly publicized complaining and bashing of the FBI by Clinton and her flunkies. By doing so, they’ve brought a lot more attention to Hillary’s crimes than anyone else. How do they now “make nice” with Comey in one day, and not appear hypocritical?
Lots of leaders throughout history have been above the law...before they weren’t.
Just compare this with how long they claim they needed to read the prior emails when they were dragging their heels.
Wow!
They got through 650,000 emails in a little over a week when it
usually takes them months to review and verify a few hundred.
now, is the NYPD going to come thru or was that just a big hoax too..
Yep.
They ran their program and not one Email had a subject of "CLASSIFIED INFORMATION FOR YOU".
