Actually, that's the tape in a Turing machine, Turing's hypothetical universal programmable computing machine.

True. I was hoping the descrfiptiont would make it less scary to people who didn't know what that was, though.  He's long been a hero of mine and it's good to see him finally get some recognition.

Interesting, nonetheless. Always pleased to see him being shown in a positive light. If only he'd been treated that way when he was alive.

Sadly if he'd been treated respectfully it's likely he wouldn't have been murdured in the first place.
