[dundee] Sorry Mr Turing - Sign the Petition - Finux spamming the list again

[Arron Finnon]

Howdie Peeps,

For a change this isn't SFD stuff, but a wee bit of spam.

A petition has been set up to get the PM to apologies for the
conviction of Alan Turing http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/turing/

Taken from the Petition;

Alan Turing was the greatest computer scientist ever born in Britain.
He laid the foundations of computing, helped break the Nazi Enigma
code and told us how to tell whether a machine could think.

He was also gay. He was prosecuted for being gay, chemically castrated
as a 'cure', and took his own life, aged 41.

The British Government should apologize to Alan Turing for his
treatment and recognize that his work created much of the world we
live in and saved us from Nazi Germany. And an apology would recognize
the tragic consequences of prejudice that ended this man's life and
career.

Please pass it on, Twitter it, oh spam some other list for it.

Finux
