Alan Turing
Computer Scientist

Alan Mathison Turing OBE FRS was an English computer scientist, mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst and theoretical biologist. He was highly influential in the development of theoretical computer science, providing a formalisation of the concepts of algorithm and computation with the Turing machine, which can be considered a model of a general purpose computer. Turing is widely considered to be the father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence.

This is serious news...because read the article first, then look around the global way of life in our societies today in the year 2016...in totality, not just one continent.
Anyway, serious food for thought; a pardon is not a denial of guilt (UK). Alan Turing was the inventor of the computer, the machines we are using right now to communicate and learn universally. The same machines used today to encode and decode and hack and reveal. This is much faster than paper (newspaper), than satellite TV network, than jet fueled airplanes, than atomic submarines. This is light speed fast, this is fiber optic light.
