Happy Birthday Alan Turing!

Science Holiday!
Today, Alan Turing, would have celebrated his 100th birthday. He is one of the fathers of the modern age, due to his contributions to the then emerging field of computer science.
Also, the Turing-test, a method to determine the ability of a computer to think like a human was first suggested by and subsequently named after Alan Turing.
So today, we raise our glasses to Alan Turing who helped bring on the information age!
I am an anthropologist and in this capacity a minor scholar of the Cthulhu Mythos and H.P. Lovecraft. I am also quite obviously heavily into Steampunk and Dieselpunk and like travelling.
