I don't think I'll be too upset about this in the short term.  I mean
I'm a freedom lover as well as the next guy, but lets not give them the
blueprints until we've covered our basis.  I wasn't dying to read that
report anyhow.  There is a point where practical concerns outweigh the
theoretical civil liberties.  The truth of the matter is that the US is
not setup to defend against someone flying a crop duster over the city
reservoirs and dumping something in them.  So it would stand to reason
that at least in the short term we wouldn't want a comprehensive survey
being easy reading.  It the long term I'd get upset about it...but not
at the moment.  (especially since its probably pretty dry reading I
would guess).
