"Gary Min worked as a scientist at DuPont for 10 years, focusing on research involving a type of high-performance film. He 
also covertly used DuPont’s computer systems to steal trade secrets valued at more than $400 million shortly before joining a 
rival company."

The ComputerWorld story continues:
"According to the information released last week, Min downloaded about 22,000 document abstracts from DuPont’s Electronic 
Data Library (EDL) server and accessed another 16,700 full-text PDF files."
