    I'm pleasantly surprised that the sunshine avoision is actually gaining some traction.

    I typically find out everything I need to know about a judge's ruling based upon five-word, out-of-context nuggets in a Reuters story.

    Not that I would be astonished that a 72-year-old Reagan appointee from San Antonio would hold such an opinion.

    Just a wee bit more context:

    "Where there is evidence of government wrong-doing and bad faith, as here, limited discovery is appropriate, even though it is exceedingly rare in FOIA cases,"

    I found the Post's correction at the bottom of that story to be quite interesting. Sounds like they're retracting the 147 FBI agents claim.

    No prob. Wasn't saying "case closed." Just adding what I had.
