- From the news:
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/the-biblical-vengeance-of-i4i/article1253054/

"Six years ago, an unusual and powerful alliance approached a tiny Toronto
software company with a fateful proposition. Microsoft was helping U.S.
intelligence sift through relentless mountains of documents relating to the
9/11 terrorist attacks but had few means to sort them out."


As the person who sent this to me put it, "More Microsoft interaction with the
intelligence community"
