From: J Ader
To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
All internal memos, reports, bulletins, newsletters, and/or alerts mentioning "Metal Gear" or "Metal Gear Solid" created from January 1st 1997 to the date of this request.
Metal Gear was a video game series developed by Konami (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_Gear). Several games in the series (such as Metal Gear Solid) referenced DARPA as an agency in their narrative, and some included a character referred to as "The DARPA Chief".
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
J Ader

Good morning, J Ader,
Attached is an updated Interim Response to your Freedom of Information Act request, case number 20-F-0391. Please disregard the previous one sent on December 13, 2019. The December 13th version mentioned that your request was referred from the Defense Contract Management Agency, which is not accurate for your case.

Good Morning J Ader,
I see that you sent a request for an update on FOIA 20-F-0391 to September 28, 2020.
I am somewhat confused as to what update you are seeking. We sent you a final response for FOIA case 20-F-0391 on February 14, 2020, as noted in the email thread below and via the attached. Were you intending to reference a different case number?
