You're right in many ways. I was pontificating... Turing. . Just a good dude, Cromwell... an asshole.. in many ways but freeing us from the shackles of monarchy. A good thing, even though by all accounts he was kind of a douche. The goods guy gets screwed, turing reminds me of david kelly.. the forces are still at work even in a relatively peaceful country like England.. speak out and somehow die, no matter what you done. Even if you literally saved the country.

There should be a Turing day, he was that much of a hero, instead he's a footnote in history.

The best iced tea I've had had lemon seeds.

Ever notice how seeded grapes taste better than sterile ones?
