All you people that want to meet dead people: you do know that you need to be dead to do this, right?

I don't really want to meet anyone.  It can only end in disappointment.

Nope, not necessary.  Just an experiment of the mind.

I've always enjoyed the apparent sense of humor that went along with the intelligence of Niels Bohr.
e.g.: "I don't believe in superstition, but I hung a horse-shoe just in case."

I always feel like I'd like to meet some of the "great minds" like Bohr, Hawking, Dawkins, Einstein, Babbage, etc. But I always feel as if the most interesting ones would have no patience for my stupidity.

Still, I can't help but wonder what it'd be like to have a seat at the pub table with a group like that. And a few young co-eds.

I've always thought it would be fun to party with Curly Howard (3 Stooges)

Slight edge over Chuck Norris:

The Dos Equis Guy - he is afterall, the "most interesting man in the world".

The rhetorical question I would ask him: "If You Could Meet Anybody, Whom Would It Be?"

Seriously though, there are many named already who would be priorities, but i've always thought it would be interesting to have a pint with Ricky Williams.

Excellent choice!  Wouldn't that be a pint and a doob though?   ;D

GO DOLPHINS!!
