The new head of the Transportation Security Administration say he's giving 10,000 of the agency's employees access to secret intelligence information to better enable them to detect threats and stop terrorists.

John Pistole told an aviation luncheon that he views TSA as a counterterrorism agency.
So, if you tell a secret to 10,000 people, is it still a secret?

I read a study years ago which stated, statistically, that for every 10,000 with a clearance, there is one spy.
