My brother, the archivist (not anarchist) will be delighted to know that the National Archives are in utter chaos and the office has not done it's job with regard to records management investigations since 2000. Forget about political finger pointing and ask the pertinent question. Should federal agencies be required to maintain records? If so, who will make sure they are doing so? If no one is checking (not since 2000) then how can we know that there are records or that the records are managed in a manner as to render them useful? We can't and that's a big, a really big, problem.
