Since nobody, really, came forward to celebrate Alan Turing's 100th Birthday the way I hope, I'm left with no choice but to stick it up everybody's arse (Oops!--poor word choice).
If Google is God enough to not let Turing's birthday pass--keeping him in the news--than I'm mortal enough to report here my findings.
Case in point:
In Honor Of Alan Turing, Linux Promoter Jon 'Maddog' Hall Comes Out GayJon “Maddog” Hall has announced he is gay, saying he wanted to the 100th anniversary of Alan Turing's birthday.[sic]
Turing is the British mathematician who helped crack the German Enigma machine code – a triumph of computer science and a turning point for the Allies in World War II.
(reckon it turned out to be a good word choice)
Could be the start of a
National Global TurnOut Day? (purposely spelled with a strikethrough n) A day when people in the math and science fields opt to come out of the closet.
