"The information goes through the heart, then to the head," he said.

Either way, I am dead, and the information goes with me.

"There is nothing to fear; the information will go no further than this room."

If the information is never going to be used, why keep it?

"But I trust that this information will go no further?"

If the Government had evidence that the information went to a foreign power,.

He was trying to set up an independent television company, though he'd be grateful if the information went no further.

But there is no evidence the information ever went any further.

So by physics the information can only go in one direction.

If this information isn't going to be in the story, why bother to think about it?
