Picture of the book ‘A Matter of Risk,’ which is related to the Hughes Mining Barge, that used to be part of the ghost/ mothball fleet in Suisun Bay.

I know it was an ecological mess, but sometimes I miss seeing the Ghost fleet out in Suisun Bay.

Also, still crazy to think about ending up in the post script to some book I read as a kid.

It's been nearly 24 hours. Where are my new @CIA #Glomar tweets? We haven't even gotten onto the Pacific yet. Nor been mooned by Soviets.

Neither Confirm Nor Deny Whether it comes from government spokespeople or celebrit...

You can collect a few @CIA tweets a day on the Cold War saga of #Glomar. Or head over to @Radiolab and get it all. http://www.radiolab.org/story/confirm-nor-deny/

Who didn't get a #Glomar but a call from @CIA Dir Colby in 1974? @SeymourHersh, who knew big secrets but was persuaded to keep mum @nytimes

So the reporter whose FOIA generated 1st @CIA #Glomar in 1975 was @hank_phillippi--now a novelist, TV journo & still classy lady.

True @CIA didn't invent "neither confirm nor deny." Kissinger, others used in diplomacy. But #Glomar pivoted it to domestic use. That's big.
