I was hoping to see Feynman on this list (especially after reading the two qualities that these people had in common). Good read, though.

  I almost included him. But I don't understand his work in physics, and it seemed lame to like him for peripheral stuff like his autobiography.

    Why lame? Physics aside, he seemed to be an extraordinary individual based on accounts of him by other people, not just his auto-biographies.

    I don't think that you have to understand all his work in detail to claim him as a hero. He was more than just his work. I wonder about John von Neumann. I thought maybe he'd be on there too.
