Tonight Jordan and I went to a movie screening being held by Intel.
It was a documentary about Alan Turning called 'Codebreaker'.

 "This film tells this story of one of the most important scientists who ever lived. Alan Turing set in motion the digital revolution and his World War II code breaking helped save two million lives. Yet few people alive today have ever heard his name or know his story. 100 years after his birth, an international production team takes viewers on a journey to rediscover the man and the mystery."
After the movie the producer and a scientist who worked with Alan Turning answered questions from the audience. It was rather interesting.

We enjoyed the documentary and found it to be thought provoking even though we didn't agree with everything the film projected.
