Geeks love puzzles! Here's one from today's paper: The New York Times reports on "a new assessment" about Iranian nuclear capability — or lack thereof — that the Times says "represents the consensus view of all 16 American spy agencies." My reaction to the article: America has 16 spy agencies? Can you name them? No Googling. Ok, go ahead and Google. You can't find them, can you? Yet they're hiding in plain sight.

Once you know where to look, it's so obvious you'll have to pretend you knew it all along. www.intelligence.gov is the homepage for the United States Intelligence Community, or IC in spookspeak. The 16 spy agencies are listed in a sidebar on the "Members of the IC" page:

• Air Force Intelligence
  
• Army Intelligence
  
• Central Intelligence Agency
  
• Coast Guard Intelligence
  
• Defense Intelligence Agency
  
• Department of Energy
  
• Department of Homeland Security
  
• Department of State
  
• Department of the Treasury
