A co-worker had worked for the FAA at a commercial airport near a
military airfield.  Military controlled its airspace; airport controlled
its.  He made a scatter plot of where planes vanished from civilian
control, thinking it might be useful..He showed it to a military
colleague who was aghast that the boundary of military control,
classified, was publicly available.

I heard a story of a physics lab that tried to operate a computer
room next to a spark chamber.
