My guess would be that he probably had spent time IM'ing with one or more pages while he was pretty looped and really doesn't recall what he might have typed in the heat of the moment(s). My contention right along has been that IM's are not like e-mails. E-mails are frequently kept in their entirety by one or both of the parties involved. But IM's are normally gone as soon as they scroll off the screen unless specific steps are taken to perserve them. I have had some pretty funny, or otherwise remarkable, IM's with models I used to work with and saving them required a fair amount of work on my part.

I suspect Mr. Foley really doesn't know at this stage of the game what someone might have preserved for whatever reason.

IM's, PM's, Chat Room files and emails are all easy to save. You can have it done automatically which I have done for years. They come in handy to exonerate my self from some pretty serious character assination
