Alan Turing: Is That It?

Alan Turing died on June 7th 1954.

He was 41.

Nobody can be certain if his death by cyanide poisoning was suicide or a tragic accident.

Despite what you may read or hear elsewhere today.

So, what's going on? Tortured Genius: What was Alan Turing really like? BBC World Service. Benedict Cumberbatch outwits Nazis in The Imitation Game - First Look Entertainment Weekly. Alan Turing: 60 Years On Huffington Post (Hopeless). Turing2014: Can machines think? @ Royal Society, London...

Err, I hope this isn't it.
