Newsstand - Trashed maps spur TSA damage control

Homeland Security officials are being warned not to toss secret documents that could compromise transportation security into the ordinary trash after hundreds of such papers marked "sensitive" reportedly were found in a city trash container near the Orlando International Airport in Florida.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) used its most recent newsletter to tell employees not to throw away outdated materials stamped as "Sensitive Security Information" (SSI).

Hmm.....shouldn't someone circulate a memo that TSA staff simply shouldn't have access to sensitive information (or, for that matter, to people and airports)?

It seems to become routine that these folks loose information -- shouldn't someone question if it's sensible to give them any information in the first place?

Any agency whose employees are too lazy to burn docs or use a shredder should NOT be trusted with the personal information of millions.
