A very interesting interview has just been published related to the heavily contested Hillary Clinton files at the Clinton Presidential Library in Little Rock, Arkansas.Conservative elements who are demanding a magic wand be waved so that the Library can dump out all Hillary Clinton material before the November 2008 election should read it.
The article is Inside The Clinton Archives by the National Journal Group publication and it was published December 17. The article is basically National Journal's Alexis Simendinger's Q & A with expert Sharon Fawcett, assistant archivist for presidential libraries at the National Archives and Records Administration. According to Sharon Fawcett there are 118 million pages of material to process from the Clinton Presidency. This includes 70 million pages of textual documents and 48 million pages of emails. There are 10 archivists working on this material and they spend 65% of their actual time processing the Freedom of information Act Requests which determine which files are released first. Fawcett stated that one million pages of material are now public.

Freedom of Information Act Request # 2006-0543- F filed at the Clinton Library deals with the Sci-Fi channel being installed at Camp David. It was originally scheduled to be installed on June 24, 1996 but President Clinton insisted that it be installed by June 15th.

PRESIDENT STAYS CURRENT WATCHING THE SCI-FI CHANNEL
Variety Magazine, written by Ray Richmond.

That became clear Friday [June 14], when a White House official contacted Dick Ross, a VP with USA Networks Inc., parent company of cable's Sci-Fi Channel.

Trachtenberg: I believe that midway through your book you talk about Dennis Kucinich actually see a…

Trachtenberg: What on earth?
MacLaine: What...
