Please pass this on and give if you can.

Gareth Halfacree is raising money so Bletchley Park can buy Alan Turing's papers.

You know the old cliche 'if it wasn't for X, you'd be speaking German right now?' Well, if it wasn't for Alan Turing, the Nazi Enigma code might never have been broken. Turing also heavily influenced our thinking about computers and artifical intelligence, and contributed to mathematical biology. He was pretty much an amazing guy. If Bletchley Park doesn't get the cash, the papers will probably go into a private collection and be lost for years, if not forever. Please check it out, thanks.
