My buddy just sent me this link because I'm always (trying-- semi-serious/semi-joke) reminding him how important Gutenberg's contributions have been. It's kinda an inside thing between him and me.

Anyway, I know this is one of those stupid, non-representative (non-accurate) internet "lists," but it amazed me that Tesla did not even make the list out of, I think, 117 people.

I would have answered him as "Most Influential," but don't tell my buddy.

Who do you feel is the most influential person in World History?

Orville at number 15 - not bad for a duck

Ghandi and Dr. Martin Luther King would be among my top, but since both were strongly influenced by Henry David Thoreau, I'll have to cast my vote for Thoreau.
