    Wow, some of the reports on famous people, including some famous mob bosses, run 2,000 or 3,000 pages. Malcolm X had 4,000.

    Odd that MLK's is over 16,000 pages. :eek:

    Interesting that the summary for some folks, like the Beatles, seem to claim that the file was opened due to a threat to their personal safety. Yet the first page I read on the Beatles mentioned Lennon's revolutionary positions (but they added that he wasn't a true revolutionary since he was high all the time :D ).
