"The essence of the Liberal outlook lies not in what opinions are held,
but in how they are held: instead of being held dogmatically, they are
held tentatively, and with a consciousness that new evidence may at any
moment lead to their abandonment." -Bertrand Russell
Anonymous Liberal"As an attorney who deals with subpoenas and requests for electronic
documents on a regular basis, I can tell you that if a private
entity--particularly one subject to legally mandated record keeping
requirements--were to inform government investigators seeking such
documents that they had been "mishandled" and were now "lost," that
entity would immediately find itself in a world of hurt and would be
lucky if it survived the aftermath. No amount of talking would be
enough to convince the authorities that there was an innocent
explanation for the missing documents. They would be absolutely
convinced that the "mishandled" documents were intentionally destroyed
in order to cover up wrongdoing."
