This would be a great tool to use for letting management see how easy this
could be used against someone.  While flipping through the information there
was one person that I found more amusing than others.  

It's a gal down in Palm Beach Florida who will going to be going after her
husband in divorce court.  She's working out the best lawyer/judge
combination record by checking Palm Beach County court information for
divorce lawyer/judge combinations.  She's also looking at ways to dump real
estate and hide income overseas.  She's been extremely busy.  I can tell by
her "anonymous" user i.d. and the time stamps.  I suspect it's a woman since
she took the time out to shop for sun dresses and children's apparel.

Wow, this would be a good opportunity for the higher ups to find out
what the average hacker can do with data mining.

nice bait!
