Excuse my ignorance here, BUT don't they keep microfilm or copies of those documents that were bobby-socked? What's so hard about telling the public just EXACTLY what was STOLEN! I don't get it!

The documents would have to be de-classified. They were marked CODE -- Highest security level. Which basically discounts Berger's silly assertions yesterday on the Tony Snow show that the classifications were "silly".

There may very well be copies, Rose. I suspect that the information is still considered to be confidential or top secret. We'll be lucky to find out the titles of the bobby-socked (LOL) documents much less the actual content.

It's not even clear if originals were taken I don't think.

I have heard that there were 3 versions of the after action memo on the Millennium plot (one may have been original) but that there wasn't any relevant difference between them (according to R. Clarke to the extent he is credible). The whole think about an OKC link and these Berger papers is pure speculation.

If not microfilmed, at least catelogued. There should be no mystery as to what is missing.

Someone explained it pretty well in a post I can no longer find. (It's there somewhere...) Apparently each copy is numbered, 1 through whatever number of copies, and passed out to the recipients--who then read them, and often they add their own comments to the copy they have--then they turn them back in. So the body of the material is probably intact, but the notes will be lost. (Someone correct me if I have this wrong.)
