Hi Chris,
This came up a while ago, where I shared you irk, until I read a newspaper
article that said the Polish were even more irked, as they captured an
enigma machine in the early 1930s, and gave it to British Intelligence who
did nothing with it! Anyway, the idea of Jon Bon Jovi helping our Alan
Turing is almost as bizarre as Pearl Harbour (hey, guys the war started a
couple of years before that don't you know?!) doing best at the Japanese box
office (I know they changed some scences- did they change the ending I
wonder...).
Vincent
