How It's Used

“‘What you see, in the average group of 15 kids, is some who are reasonably well informed [about the CIA], who have looked at the Web page, who have actually tried to figure us out a little,’ [Dave Carey, the CIA’s executive director,] says. ‘And then there are those who think it is going to be 007.’”

Tim Weiner, “Spies Wanted: Are you a patriotic college grad with a knack for languages, a love of intrigue—and a willingness to put up with a hoary bureaucracy?  If so, send a résumé to the C.I.A., Washington, D.C., 20505,” The New York Times, January 24, 1999, p. 37.
