"I just don't see it that there would be any motivation in such that people would be trying to evade Freedom of Information responsibilities."

--Thomas Mooney, attorney for firm that represents numerous school districts and municipalities in Connecticut, regarding a recent growth in the filing of freedom of information complaints (from an article in the Stamford Advocate [1])

Maybe it's in their interest for officials to keep some things secret? If there weren't any motivation, there wouldn't be a law.
