Actually, it's part of the statutes regarding the census. It's meant as a privacy protection, I believe. I don't know why 72 years was chosen over 70 or 75 years, but the reason are likely available in histories, Congressional Records, maybe even the 'Net, if you're interested. --- On Thu, 3/11/10, HARRY MARJORIE DELLWO <[email protected]> wrote: ...do you really think that is  political... just thought it was a fact.
