120703 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 from Walt saying....
120704 -
120705 -     I have review your Web Site this morning (21 May 2003) using
120706 -     Google.  I note that you are using my name and organization in
120707 -     your public accessible files. I request that you do not use my
120708 -     name.  Please remove my name and references to me from your public
120709 -     accessible files.  I note that you have attributed statements to
120710 -     me that I believe are not correct as identified below:
120712 -      ..
120713 -     501726 -    [On 030513 Walt ---- at DISA does not believe SDS is
120714 -     501727 -    the best way to find the right information at the
120715 -     501728 -    right time. rff SDS 83 9I6O
120717 -      ..
120718 -     Once again, please remove my name and references to me from your
120719 -     public accessible files. ref DRT 1 FC6L
120720 -
120722 -  ..
120723 - Sent an email to Walt saying....
120724 -
120725 -    1.  Walt's request to remove his name and agency (DISA, DOD) from
120726 -        SDS records aligns with Mussie's request yesterday, ref SDS 33
120727 -        0001, and answers the question submitted to Walt asking him to
120728 -        confirm the request. ref SDS 33 VT4M  This eliminates ambiguity
120729 -        from silence on this matter in Walt's letter last night.
120730 -        ref SDS 33 4S6N
120732 -         ..
120733 -    2.  Since DOD and DISA are public agencies, and since there is no
120734 -        evident threat to national security nor otherwise sensitive and
120735 -        private information disclosed in SDS records concerning Walt,
120736 -        there is no legal duty to comply with a request to purge the
120737 -        record, under the general rule: no harm no foul.  Moreover,
120738 -        since Walt's name is already displayed on the Internet in
120739 -        hundreds of records outside of SDS, it is not clear what is
120740 -        gained by removing the name from this one particular source?
120742 -         ..
120743 -    3.  At the same time, nothing is harmed except for the extra time
120744 -        required to remove Walt's name from SDS records on the
120745 -        Internet, and so as stated in the record yesterday, I am
120746 -        certainly willing to make an accomodation to suit personal
120747 -        preference.
120749 -         ..
120750 -    4.  Yesterday, I asked Walt what form removing his name should
120751 -        take? ref SDS 33 XS59  Today, his letter does not address this
120752 -        issue. Pending clarification from Walt, will remove Walt's last
120753 -        name and the entire Contact section at the top of the record,
120754 -        where the organization and contact names are listed.  We can
120755 -        automate this feature to maintain Contacts in the active
120756 -        record, but redact from publication.
120758 -         ..
120759 -        [...in another record made this fix. ref SDS 34 0001
120761 -         ..
120762 -    5.  Redacted Walt from all SDS records on the Internet, except the
120763 -        one he cites, per above, ref SDS 0 EP3T, which is pending
120764 -        notification from Walt.
120766 -         ..
120767 -    6.  It usually takes a few days for Google and others to update
120768 -        their records, so your name will continue to show up in SDS
120769 -        records for perhaps a week or so, and it will be in the cache
120770 -        on your computer.  Pressing "Reload" will show the records have
120771 -        been changed to meet your request, per above.

570506 -    7.  Finally, you say in your letter today, that the representation
570507 -        you cite from the SDS record is "not correct" that says...
570508 -
570509 -            [On 030513 Walt ---- at DISA does not believe SDS is
570510 -            the best way to find the right information at the
570511 -            right time. rff SDS 83 9I6O

570515 -         ..
570516 -    8.  Of course I am pleased to hear this, because I had understood
570517 -        in our call on 030513 that you were reserving judgment pending
570518 -        a showing of proof that SDS is the best way to find the right
570519 -        information at the right time. ref SDS 29 9I6O
570521 -         ..
570522 -    9.  At that time, I believed your caution was justified pending
570523 -        investigation.  The implication in your letter this morning is
570524 -        that you now believe, as a result of investigation reported in
570525 -        your letter last night, that SDS is the best way to find the
570526 -        right information at the right time.  Therefore, in light of
570527 -        this correction, what is the basis of your report last night
570528 -        saying SDS and Com Metrics do not contribute to mission
570529 -        requirements in your assignment to develop technology for
570530 -        finding the right information at the right time, which you
570531 -        related in our call on 030421? ref SDS 24 DF8F  Something here
570532 -        seems to be out of alignment, inconsistent and conflicting?
570534 -         ..
570535 -   10.  Finally, since I have accommodated your preference to remove
570536 -        your name from SDS records on the Internet, can you please take
570537 -        a moment and address the questions in my record analyzing
570538 -        findings in your letter last night. ref SDS 33 4T4F, in
570539 -        particular para 2a concerning Roy Roebuck's analysis of DOD
570540 -        requirements and SDS capabilities. ref SDS 33 4T5J
