To: Barry J. Toiv, High Exalted Muckety Muck White Castle Press and Database Spokesman Dear Sir, I am researching the topic of rent seeking in government and could make good use of your "Big Brother" database. From press reports I've heard it contains payment records and invoiced items for political transactions. This should enable me to calculate prices and inflation rates for ambassadorships etc. If it's not too much trouble could you email me a copy of the 20,000 name database before my thesis is due? P.S. Please give me the "FBI clean" version, I don't need the really dangerous bits.
