At the same time that he had an SRI security clearance, Poulsen had been pulling nighttime burglaries on Pacific Bell facilities, stealing manuals, passwords, anything that might provide access, the San Jose indictment charged. The handful of books and papers ranged from "How to Buy Stocks" to a copy of "Watchmen," a violent comic book scries, to a bright yellow report binder that might have been scribbled by an eighth-grader but for its title.
