So I know I can't be the only one who's had the unexpected pleasure of coming into possession of messages that aren't intended for my consumption. I'm not talking about you getting someone's private love letters or metaphorical cat video links, which I've gotten and deleted.

If I were back home, I'd be sliding this info to my nearest and dearest investigative journalist type. Since I'm not, well, I guess I've got to take matters in my own hands.

It's an interesting read, so, I'm just going to include the unedited details for all.


[what follows is a copy of the message that peter had received earlier, sent from lydia gill-jade, which seems the sort of thing that would come up in a current headlines search if it weren't presumably a secret. well, so much for that, huh?]

Maybe it's just me, but do people usually name successors for campaign donations?

[YOOOOO]

I don't know. A hundred years is a long time to keep something like that quiet, if it's true. It wouldn't be easy to keep it off the books completely. [she should know] Especially not if it happened more than once.

It could've happened dozens of times. Upgrade the software and make it so nobody remembers.

That wouldn't destroy records, though. And people here are very into social media.

They wouldn't have to destroy anything if they can just program people to not even know what they're looking at.
