In exile in England during the Second World War, Robert Neumann will fi- nally get to know a cybernetics specialist who not only can scramble the stereo- phonies of German bombers but also can build "a solitary typewriter . . . that starts writing all by itself, as soon as we step out the door. (Simultaneously, a tele- vision set lights up directly across from it-I feel it dictates to the typewriter with- out sound what it thinks of us. )" R. Neumann 1963, 167-69.

I99. Turing, October 14, I936, quoted in Hodges I983, I20. Turing's step toward cryptoanalysis was only consistent if both brain and nature were threat- ened by Laplacian computation mistakes. For computers, he later wrote, "the field of cryptography will perhaps be the most rewarding. There is a remarkably close parallel between the problems of the physicist and those of the cryptogra- pher. The system on which a message is enciphered corresponds to the laws of the universe, the intercepted messages to the evidence available, the keys for a day or a message to important constants which have to be determined. The correspon- dence is very close, but the subject matter of cryptography is very easily dealt with by discrete machinery, physics not so easily" (Turing, I948, in Hodges I983, 383). That is how simply computer capabilities spell out the differences between nature and general staffs.
