MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy to the DCI for National Intelligence
FROM: Director of Central Int2ll igtvnce
SUBJECT: Twenty Questions
As a second thought to my handwritten note last night on
the Twenty Questions issue, I think I'd appreciate it if you'd
use my list of Twenty Questions for the long-range List A and
your list with my annotations for List B. This gives us a specific
"Twenty Questions," even though I don't think we will really get
to discussion of List A. Having a more restricted list with
fewer numbers and more specific questions might discipline us
to talk more of priorities rather than totalities.
