Nothing Better To Do?

Seriously?

• off the subject..but does anyone know why J-Fed is auditing exempts' emails? is it just certain exempts? scandal brewing?
  is he tired of leaks to SCC? afraid of politically incorrect ones?lawsuits? exempts have said no emails unless directly job related..very directly...any one know what is going on?

One theory in the replies:

• The email policy is mainly due to upcoming changes in FOIA laws. They don't want slick attorneys getting their hands on private intra-department info.

Plausible. There are new FOIA rules coming up after the first of the year and they seem more sweeping than ever. One might imagine that e-mails back-and-forth over "merit" picks, dinner plans and policy changes fall under the "discoverable" umbrella.

Or he could just be looking for those dozen or so exempts who forward ...well, never mind.
