Hillary used an instruction manual to render her server "blank," but . . . . . . .

Before reading the following from ABC and pulling your hair out at the roots,  keep in mind that the IRS servers had been "destroyed," as well.  In the end,  most of that data was reconstituted.  Also,  keep in mind that the FBI took possession of Hillary's "blank" server on Wednesday   . . . . . . .  a thorough and involved effort at retrieving information from that server has not been completed;  in fact,  I doubt the effort has even been started.  I intend to give this (FBI) investigation a month or two or three,  knowing that the three networks are firmly in the Hillary camp,  on this issue,  and will report the truth, only when an evolving and inescapable reality has them boxed in.

The last batch of Hillary Clinton emails released by the State Department included one from Clinton asking to borrow a book called “Send: Why People Email So Badly and How to Do It Better,” by David Shipley and Will Schwalbe.

Clinton has not said why she requested the book, but it includes some advice that is particularly interesting in light of the controversy over her unconventional email arrangement at the State Department and her decision to delete tens of thousands of emails she deemed to be purely personal.
 
The copy that ABC downloaded for $9.99 had some interesting revelations.

Take, for example, Chapter Six: “The Email That Can Land You In Jail.” The chapter includes a section entitled “How to Delete Something So It Stays Deleted.”
“Some people are hoarders, some are checkers,” the authors write. “The main thing to consider is that once you do decide to delete, it’s like taking the garbage from your kitchen and putting it in your hallway. It’s still there.”

The chapter advised that to truly delete emails may require a special rewriting program “to make sure that it’s not just elsewhere on the drive but has in fact been written over sixteen or twenty times and rendered undefinable.”
