Hello Jasen - 

CA>> It could be that Nelson talked about it and APPLE

CA>> a great deal but accomplished little in terms of a working
CA>> system. 

JB> Most of Turings work was classified, (something called

JB> There's a documentary "Station X" that covers some of it. 

We used to laugh that the Russians would scan backwards through
their history and find something 'similar' to a modern
invention then claim that "Russia invented that". I think what
Turing is credited with is a desperate attempt to find earlier
work to give credit to rather than assign the credit to a
living person who might then be able to copyright/patent the
idea and make a few pesos from it.
