While I'm happy for Alan Turing, may he rest in peace, I think the 
thousands of other homosexuals who have been prosecuted for something 
which shouldn't be a crime in the first place might be a bit peeved that 
he is singled out for a pardon.

Personally, I think that people ought to throw a party celebrating 
Turing's rehabilitation, and do it right outside the Russian Embassy.
