Re:Who do the Brits think they are? (Score 1)

Given the subject matter, I can see that the chances of an invocation of Godwin's law is high. What was it that was said earlier about British education vs American education? Dude, don't rely on Hollywood for your history: subscribe to Reader's Digest, or something if you want to improve your mind... What blows me away is how there were times when British lives could have been saved as a result of the codebreaking, but no action was taken in order to keep the fact that the codes were being broken secret. How does any make a call like that? Ironically enough, it was the fact that the grovelling pointhaired German radio operators used to start their messages with the words "Hiel Hitler!". Encode it as much as you like, but if you start each message the same... (Damn, there I go mentioning the H* word! I'd better shut up.)
