That's Tom. He's been doing the CW thing for years and developed an
interest and later, collection of Enigma machines over the last
decade. He was our first confirmed key note speaker when we started
NEAR-Fest in 2007, I asked him at Dayton oddly enough.

Tom has done some movie work before, including a bit where he dressed
like Walter Winchell to recreate a famous photo, which was used to
promote a HBO special about Winchell back in '98.

You can contact him via his site. If you have any trouble, let me know
and I'll send him your email info Dave.I'm sure he'd be willing to
work something out for use of an Enigma machine, though it might
require his presence. It's not the kind of thing you just drop in the
mail and say 'send it back when you're done'.
