Helen Cullyer's and Todd Carpenter's talks well worth a visit if/when posted on the Conference web site. Privacy is a tricky thing.] Slashdot is reporting on a case in Washington State about nude dancers, whose identities are being sought under a FOIA request. This government open-records request is being made by a man who wants to obtain information about 70 licensed strippers in his town so he can 'pray for them.' In Washington the dancers are licensed. Do they have a right to keep their identities a secret? The story is both funny and disturbing at the same time. http://yro.slashdot.org/story/14/11/09/1416228/washington-dancers-sue-to-prevent-identity-disclosure Joe Esposito
