Tell Me, What'd I Say?

Myself, I think I'm moving into a form of cryptology where I can't even decode myself.

  2. Mushy: I guess my brain was just slow to recognize it. It takes me half an hour just to get up from the computer and walk across the room to the doorway, so you see I take a while to get anywhere!

    Cricket: You're supposed to be. Why should it be just me?

  3. Have a look at E-bay - they might have an old Enigma machine on offer.

  6. I know what it was. I meant to say it as I said it, based on an assumption that less than half my readership was going to know what it was (the only reason I know is that I read a great deal of history), and also almost everything built has an inside, dammit! Even you. I liked the idea of picturing it as a sort of slice-and-dice machine on late-night TV.

  7. Very creative! I don't have your poetic mind, sad to say. ;-)
