certain parties posting to the list seemed to think that revealing
the translated code was some sort of breach of faith with our
superheroes, the UR crew....even Mr. (ahem) Morse suggests that the

Perhaps he is part of the scheme and is not to be trusted. I think
he's at least a little confused, since the enigma machines were used
by Germany against the Allies.
part of the message was in the way it was delivered i think. if ur just
wanted people to go to that website, they could have printed the name of the
site on the label of the record. so i can imagine mad mike and crew being a
bit annoyed by someone giving 'all the answers' to those too lazy to type
'morse code' into a search engine, and decipher the code themselves.
as for enigma, it was created by the nazi's and was considered to be an
unbreakable code... but the brits cracked the code, and could therefore
follow nazi plans. the nazi's were unaware that their code was cracked, so
in hindsight it was the brits that were using enigma against the nazi's.
