If you were to meet an important figure throughout history, who would it be and why?
I think I would meet the greek philosophers. I think they are quite brilliant and whatelse would be awesome is that I can ask them about what is happening today and I would like them to share their opinions about it. It'll be awesome.

I'd love to meet George Harrison and/or John Lennon. I'd like to know what they would think about the state of things today. Lots of people try to say they'd agree with this and that, but I'd like to know for myself. Not to mention they're 2 of my heros.

QUOTE i would visit some guy who named a game after Marco Polo because why do you name a game after an explorer? ...why would he know?  And most likely because he was an explorer...and you need to be guided by voices in the game...see the connection?  But yeah, I'd like to meet either Cleopatra or Queen Elizabeth. They truly showed how equally intelligent and powerful women could be at such time periods when women were suppressed.

smells like a school eassy question - EEEK.
Well, i'd have to say Christopher Colombus; because man did he pull a "homer" by discovering north america. I'd like to ask him; "dude, you screwed up big time; how was it like making contact with native americans for the first time?" Yea, chris is a spazz but he did g00d. ;p Even thought it eventally started the rape of the native american's land - that's another story. ^_^ |

Then he would probably not go into Dallas, Texas and not get killed. |
