Sheila:
I don't think Shirley was talking about grant numbers.
It is the WHOI BiTech project numbers that are the oddity.

Grant numbers from Federal Agencies are a matter of public record. As 
you point out, they are available at agency websites.

BiTech project numbers are unique to WHOI. I believe the 
'confidentiality' or non-publicizing of project numbers may have to do 
with avoiding instances where someone charges someone else's project 
without permission. Similar to telephone/copy codes.
