Yesterday was the second anniversary of the death of Robert Drinan, priest, friend to the oppressed, and former Congressman. The Boston Globe ran an article detailing what it found in his FBI file and a funny story about him finding information on himself during a tour of FBI headquarters.
In case you didn't see it, the story is here: http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2009/01/28/drinan_lawmaker_priest_and_target_of_fbi_scrutiny/
Note of the story running has gone around some of us who knew him, including some of his former staffers. One noted how happy we was that he had made the Nixon "Enemies List" and that Bella Abzug had not (not that he was competitive).
I can only hope that someone will think that I'm important enough to dig up my FBI file a couple of years after I go.
