Today's *Christian Science Monitor* online edition discusses a newly
released report, the *Baker-Hamilton Report*, prepared at the request of the
DOE. The report says in essence that scientists at Los Alamos National
Weapons Labs have become afraid of reporting or admitting even minor
security breaches as a result of the threat of an aggressive prosecution and
in the wake of the Wen Ho Lee situation. Who can blame them? The RISKS
should be fairly obvious. The entire article can be accessed at:

A quick search for the "Baker-Hamilton report" on the DOE web site didn't
turn up anything, but I would imagine that the report itself would make for
fairly interesting reading for any RISK follower.
[The Government gave a terrible example of *when holey*
prosecutions can run amok (holey, i.e., having holes).
Perhaps the "situation" (as Ray calls it) will become known as an
*Un-Ho-Lee Mess* (unholy, i.e., of questionable authority). PGN] ["Ray Randolph" via risks-digest Volume 21, Issue 07]
