Today’s Silicon.com has an article about the plight of Bletchley Park, the UK intelligence installation where much of the code cracking effort took place during WWII (thanks in part to the efforts of Alan Turing). The mansion at the park has been undergoing restoration because, well, it is a stately home, and Britain loves its stately homes. But the actual sheds where the geek guys did their work are in a dreadful state, and to make matters worse contain a fair amount of asbestos.

Hopefully this is one of those things that an IT company might step up and help with, although in today’s economic climate no one has a lot of cash to throw around. Meanwhile, as usual, the park’s management is asking for help from individuals. More details from their web site.
