BigBartlett: Okay.
BigBartlett: In general there's good news and bad news, sir.
BigBartlett: The good news is that while traditionally it's White House policy to save every scrap of paper of every administration--
BigBartlett: including personal notes, emails, Post-its, and even those doodles of Barney you do when you're bored--
BigBartlett: there had been no policy concerning instant messaging.
BigBartlett: The technology was simply too new when we arrived in 2000.

Kickass43: that's gd!

BigBartlett: The bad news is that Harriet Miers...

Kickass43: o no

BigBartlett: when she served as Staff Secretary...

Kickass43: o man

BigBartlett: took it upon herself to correct this omission.
BigBartlett: Working with our geek squad, she managed to implement an auto-save feature on every White House computer...
