Recommended Posts

This news has made my day, one of the greatest minds of the 20th Centenary who's cryptology knowledge saved tens of thousands of lives, the fore father of modern day computers, Artificial Intelligence and the Turing test ALAN My ATHISON TURING has been given a Royal Pardon.

 

I have been campaigning for this for years, his only crime was being homosexual.

 

He committed Suicide in 1954 by partially eating a cyanide laced apple, the rest of the apple was found on his bed next to his dead body, today that image still lives on as the icon for little computer company Macintosh.
