Great People (IMO)

1) Issac Newton: One of the most intelligent people who ever lived and so very intertwined with nature. Many of his works were kick starters to the achievements we have today.

2) Albert Einstein: Another great scientists who's genius til this day is not fully understood.

3) Micheal Faraday: Born in poverty and no education, surpassed everyone in study of electricity and magnetism at the time and concluded that they were one in the same.

4) Nikola Tesla: A person who even the genius Albert Einstein considers a genius and with his mind invented/patented over 200 inventions and wanted to power the world with electricity for free. This is a man that thought not only for his family, not only for his friends, not even for his own native country or people, he thought about the entire human race as a whole and how he can make our lives better.

5) James Randi: A magician who took joy in unmasking frauds and scams of the supernatural kind for example telekinesis and speaking with the dead, has a $1,000,000 prize for anyone who can pass his controlled tests that claim to possess such supernatural abilities. We need people like this in the world as there are crummy people who use magical and religious means to scam believers out of even their entire lives.

6) Richard Feynman: One of the more recent scientists (deceased) that thinks in the way I think I want to think. He is a model that I think everyone pursuing science should be like. He is funny, smart, and very down to earth, and seeks knowledge only to gain it, doesn't like honors and realizes what it really means to learn something.

7) Alan Turing: Considered to be the father of computers and artificial intelligence he helped break the German cryptography of the Enigma machine during world war 2.

8) Ada Lovelace: Considered to be the person who wrote the first algorithm that is carried out by a machine.

9) James Clerk Maxwell: A scientist who continued and mathematically equated the relation between electricity and magnetism work done by Micheal Faraday.

10) Leonardo Da Vinci: Probably one of the greatest minds of his time, he thought about and created histories most amazing things, some we still use today. He was another one of those people who were well a head of his time.

More to come....
