Message 00298: Re: pacer

we're going to have fun with this. like I said, it will take me a couple of weeks to do stuff like scrub it and stamp the metadata, plus I want to see if I can get your piece combined with TIm's. We might be close to 50% by the time we're done. And, it will definitely make the point.

Back of the envelope calculation:

rhode island = 20G / 25000 cases ~= 800K/case

100 districts * avg. 50K cases * 800K = 4TB

I'm not sure how much more I can get, but it's probably not much more.
but 25% isn't so bad.
