The new Strategic Information an Operations Center is unveiled at FBI
headquarters in Washington, D.C. Counterterrorism, computer and violent
crime units have dibs on the center's resources. George Bush cut the
ribbon and reporters were given one last look at tax dollars before they
cross over the event horizon. Subject of this post is a quote from
Attorney General Reno at the unveiling.
