Don't apologize, Dean, we've all got a little battle fatigue. It's been a grueling year. If you've noticed, they've stopped saying what type type of classified documents they've found. As TC pointed out in another post, these docs just just don't get passed around like a memo. They're signed out and should be logged back in. That's how they know what's still missing.
