I voted Charles Darwin, because of his theory of evolution, however Albert Einstein is close with his theory of relativity.

Nikola Tesla

Along with some of the weirdest and most creative inventions even in the current day, he created alternating current, which we use to power our devices.
If I were to become a scientist, I would want to follow in the footsteps of Tesla, pioneering a new field in the most wild ways imaginable.

Sometimes I wonder if he was a time traveler sent back in time just to fuck with us.

Kevin Warwick. Because he's the shit.

Quote
Kevin Warwick is Professor of Cybernetics at the University of Reading, England, where he carries out research in artificial intelligence, control, robotics and biomedical engineering.

Kevin has carried out a series of pioneering experiments involving the neuro-surgical implantation of a device into the median nerves of his left arm in order to link his nervous system directly to a computer in order to assess the latest technology for use with the disabled. He has been successful with the first extra-sensory (ultrasonic) input for a human and with the first purely electronic communication experiment between the nervous systems of two humans.

I'm partial to Stephen Hawking

Mainly because of the ALS he has to live with and still be able to persevere to be one of the greatest minds of our time

That in itself is very impressive

Yea I agree I was going to put Tesla up there but only 10 spots sad.gif I was hoping someone would put him in other. Nicee. Yea alot of his work got disregarded because of Franklin. He was very interesting.

Yea that must be difficult to deal with. His life is basically all in his mind, which I guess is his gift and curse.
