Briefed Joel Bagnell and Rajeev Venkayya at the WH on the rolling out
of justification for classified research. Some friendly tension between Joel and me in that they wanted us (CDC, FDA, HHS, NIH to sign off on the roll-out document and there was a phrase in there that did not clarify that we do not do classified research. It asked us
to justify with all of our research why it should be unclassified making the default
position that everything should be classified. I had them change it to read that we should explain why it is not classified as opposed to justifying it as being unclassified. We came
to an agreement.
