This is very accurate.  The third Department established within the
National Security Agency back in 1947 was the 'Office of Public
Information'.  60 years ago satellite photography was non-existent and
even 60 years after inception the very existence & scope of NSA was
unknown to all but a few hundred thousand.  Still, with 60 years of
preparation the 'Discovery' of NSA by the World was anticipated &
prepared for.  The 'contingency plans' implemented by the 1st DIRNSA
have served the Agency better than the most expensive Super Computer
they ever purchased.

I am amazed at the outcry over 'eavesdropping' that is occurring now.
The capability has existed & been implemented ever since 1913 here in
the U.S.  Time was when /every/ telegram that traversed a Western Union
wire passed through the Nation's cryptography department.  If these
'invasions of privacy' have been so detrimental for 95 years then why
did it take so long to become part of the public outrage?

People, G.W. Bush did not 'invent' the NSA; President Truman did.
