Secrecy Quote

"Not only is it too easy for bureaucrats to wield a classified stamp, there are no uniform standards for what should be kept secret and what should not. There are good reasons, national security being foremost, for withholding certain information for at least a time. But the fact is, these are taxpayer-paid public records and in time the public, in the form of historians, researchers, journalists and the merely curious, deserves access to them."
