   Well, you've asked a question that is difficult to answer completely, but   
   ... I'd have to say Ranald McKenzie would rank very high.   Especially since   
   I see you did NOT make it a requirement that I'd want to live his life.   
      
   On the other side of a lot of coin, I think a lot of the suggestion of F.   
   Remington.   
   A very good candidate for the nomination!   
      
   Good question: you've stirred the pot with this one.
