On edit: here's the complete list of files available: http://www.paperlessarchives.com/alphabetical.html
I recall ordering the Albert Einstein FOIA files a while back. That's no doubt how I got on their mailing list (No Fly list too?)

1. Um...what about FOIA...?

The site wants money (60% off through 11/2/07)
...shouldn't these things be free through the Freedom of Information Act?
Or has that gone by the wayside as well?
:shrug:

2. Yes, you can go to...

Certain government websites for some of this info, also there are sites like this:

3. AFAIK, the FOIA is still "on the books".

But even before this "Imperial Presidency", that was supposed to be a very lengthy process. And document charges, although nominal per page, could add up with a CD's load of documents. But NOW? Rotzaruck!

$10 a copy doesn't strike me as excessive, if one has a need/use for it. I have two disks (FBI files on Einstein and Hollywood), and they're strictly "no frills" --- no cover art, and no marking on the disks. But they play just fine on my computer. I'm almost tempted to go for the complete set.
