    A worth while project and a tribute to those geese at Betchley Park who laid the golden eggs of intelligence but did not cattle.

    It was a fantastic achievement to reproduce the Collossus, based on so little information.
    A remarkable man.

    I hope you don't think Colossus broke Enigma? Sorry if I've mis-understood you. anyway, you can get more enlightenment here:
