Bush Presidential Center in Dallas is struggling with how to archive and provide access to the 200 million email messages that constitute the former president's electronic correspondence, a problem unprecedented in the history of presidential libraries, says the Wall Street Journal. Each page must be reviewed and, if necessary, censored. At the current maximum pace of 800,000 messages per year, that would take 250 years.
