til that there is a 50 pound note with Alan Turing on it

It's the least they could do. He was a war hero but because he was gay they arrested him and injected him with chemicals that broke him and led to suicide.

He was born after Ronald Reagan. Imagine the contributions he could have made if he got to see the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, etc. Reagan lived all the way to 2004.

Yup. Turing was born in 1912 and Reagan was born in 1911. Turing died in the 50s so his story seems ancient, but it could have been so much more.

wow i never realized that he was younger than Ronald Regan
