Re: US vs. Reynolds, state secrets privilege
I wonder if there is grounds there for a suit of some kind. The government clearly abused power and resource to cause harm (in addition to that caused by the loss of life) to those families.

Heard this on the radio. The font Century Gothic uses 30 percent less ink when printing. Checked it out on Word and it looks like a good font.
