What article was this?

Some of the stuff to which it referred may be black book and not "official enough" for us to really know its name.

But I thought of some more:

AIA (Air Intel Agency...but you might've covered that under "Air Force")
ASA (Army Sec Agency...again, might be already covered)
NIMA (National Imagery and Mapping Agency)
NRO (National Recon Office)
NSG (Naval Sec Group...again, covered)

The Depts of State, Treasury, Energy all have intel groups.
So does the Coast Gaurd and Navy.
There's the Information Analysis and Infrastructure Protection Directorate.
Is the Strategic Defense Initiative Organization considered one?

The paper is now birdie poop paper. The article was talking about a position that was being considered- a co-ordinator for all agencies??? They just mentioned there were 37. Now I know some of you have to be more informed than I am...

Well, they need one (a co-ordinator, that is).
Lookit that tangle of agencies!

They could have, seperately, info pointing just about anything but no one to put 2 and 2 together.

But, still...whadda job that'd be.

Oh, just in case this site is being monitored, it's just a simple question. No need for tracking me down.
Is there an agency for web intelligence? There may be.
