    I'm really surprised that the Boozers came out with a public report as they formerly wanted more than anything to fly under the radar. For those that may not know or have forgotten, Booz Allen is the company that security Services farm out work to- out of about 20,000 workers worldwide, over half have Top Secret security clearances (Snowden was a Booz employee).

    There are many here that worry about being watched by the Government. The folks at Booz are Those that Watch.

    Booz Allen Hamilton.......McClean Virginia. How convenient is that location?

    I've heard of them before, just in passing. A friend of ours worked for the CIA, developing software. He still does it in retirement on contract. He mentioned Booz Allen a year or so ago in some context while we were visiting them in Virginia. I don't remember what he said.

    Exactly the same which crossed my own mind. What are they saying? By all means invite them in?

    Public attention that is. And on some findings here and there. Very interesting and a new move on their part I think.
