I almost wish I'd been refused.
I used to work for a Government Department and the thought of having to supply all held information to a customer really freaked them out. Granted I'm talking a lot of information here going back in some cases to 1948- a lorry load of paper was one top estimate, but what really worried them was the man hours involved in compiling the information with no way of getting out of doing it to a fixed time scale.
