Nice one phillipMac
Turing is gone and not forgotten.
He remains a fine example of the crass stupidity of discriminating against people on the basis of sexuality (or religion, ethnic background and on and on)
They had no problem with his sexuality when they needed him at Bletchley Park.
Unfortunatley he was embroiled in a police investigation some years after the war and was told he was to be outed as a 'pervert'. He took the honourable way out...
RIP
