o no worries...i'm fine with disagreement. i'm just sitting around thinking about this question of secrecy vs. democracy (which is how i frame it) and decided to poke around the edges of your position, which is framed differently. yours seems more a defense of the military's prerogative to designate what is and is not secret. there's a side of me that understands that. there's also a side that sees it in conflict with the requirements of a democratic society. i'm not sure there's a resolution to the conflict one way or another.
