I was listening to a report about the Hillary e-mail fiasco the other day. They said that Hillary had provided 30,000 e-mails to the FBI resulting from their subpoena but she reported that 33,000 had been lost or deleted.
Hillary was Secretary of State from 2009 to 2013. She explained that the lost or deleted e-mails were just personal e-mails about Chelsea’s [then] pending wedding. Chelsea was married on 7/31/2010.
So here we go.
Let’s say that Chelsea and Hillary were e-mailing heavily for the year before the wedding and about 6 months after. That is about 25 months or 43 e-mails a day. Almost 2 per hour, 24 hours a day for over 2 years.
Every day.
Not considering that there must have been a few days in there that either Chelsea or Hillary might have been preoccupied with other things. Being Secretary of State and all.
But this is a very conservative estimate because the Clinton’s were heavy Blackberry users and most of their back-n-forths would have been by voice, voice messages, texts, etc. And some, probably quite a few, days they would have been in each other’s company. If one could conceive that Hillary and Chelsea might e-mail each other while in the same room, maybe that’s a mute point.
Social recluse that I am I just can’t be held as an example, but I get maybe 43 e-mails a year. And have trouble keeping up with that many.
What the multi-tasker Hillary must be.
Running a household of one (Chelsea is off with hubby-to-be and Bill’s off being Bill), e-mailing her daughter (and I presume others) about her upcoming wedding, and running the foreign affairs of one of the largest, most complex countries in the world. And running her own home server to boot.
