BoingBoing says they’re filing a FOIA

If I had any numbers on how many bloggers out there have filed a FOIA, well, that would make this post more interesting. No matter. The folk at the popular Boing Boing say they’re doing the FOIA-dance on behalf of some detained-by-TSA air-travelers. This will very likely make FOIA’s popular in the a-list blog crowd, who will scour the corners of the interwebs for something they can sic their FOIA-request on.

And if that doesn’t lead anywhere juicy, well heck, then they can go on and file a FOIA on grandpa.
