1. The breaking of the German Uboat codes significantly effected the outcome of WWII (and it goes without saying why that is important)
2. The technology he created to break the encryption was a cornerstone in the technology we use today in our everyday lives.

The message?  Well..I think considering the above will speak for itself....

and ...that is fucking clever!!!!!  I am impressed. One of the best protest signs I have ever seen!

That seems to lend credence to suna's thesis.

Status: offline 		Turing's death was pretty sad.   Homosexuality was illegal in Brittain at the time and the police discovered he was having a homosexual relationship.   He was stripped of his security clearance and, as part of his plea arrangement for his crime, he was required to take estrogen therapy to treat his mental illness known as homosexuality.

He committed suicide a year or so after starting on the therapy.

Status: offline 		Turing is a personal hero of mine. The whole bitch tits part of his life is just too tragic for words. It's one of the reasons I oppose the "normals" with all of their hypocrisy and bullshit fake religious moralizing. Rather than being lionized as would have been merely just, he was tortured and hidden away from the public eye.

I co-sign alwaysuna's take on this. I tried to say it in one word, and that might have been too short of an explanation.
