Remember Philby?
"Those cryptanalysts were in a world of their own,they were an eccentric 
pernickity lot.My work in SIS often bought me in contact with them.One day 
one of them showed me a German message he'd been working on.It was about a 
meeting to take place at the Brenner Pass between Mussolini and someone 
else.The cryptanalyst had deciphered the letters H-TL-R.
He asked me if I had any suggestions.Straight away I said Hitler,its got to 
be Hitler.
He looked at the message again and said after a while.Well yes.But theres 
not the slightest shred of cryptological evidence for such a conclusion."
