	I'm so glad Derrida is not on this list.

	Where's Andre the Giant?

	Well it's their list, but I am dismayed to not see any composers on here. This is the country that gave us Ravel, Bizet, and Debussy.

	Technically, De Gaulle wasn't Prime Minister, he was President. You should accept De Funès (or De Funes) for Louis De Funes since it's his surname. Same for Saint-Exupéry, I tried again and again but I couldn't get it in there. His name may be with "de" but we commonly call him "Saint-Exupery" in France. Oh, and about the source, it's France 2 and not French 2 ;)

	Thanks. Changes will be made.

	Wonderful quiz. 100 greatest Dutchmen or Italians next?

	Oppmannen:	Nov 25th, 2009 at 22:55 GMT		2 points
	Great quizzes, both this and the German one. But I am a bit suprised, in a historical perspective, that Zidane is here but Just Fontaine isn't.

	I quit when I realized Lavoisier and de Broglie weren't on the list. Madness!

	SamG316:	Dec 22nd, 2009 at 03:46 GMT		-2 points
	Meh, in my opinion we'd be better off without the French

	RedLIon:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 16:43 GMT		0 points
	SamG316 : Without the French there would be no USA.

	RedLIon: Likewise. Well, there might be a communist France, assuming the Russians won World War II all by itself. Lets not be under any illusions, Britain could never have pulled off D-day by itself (neither could America by itself). But yeah, Without the USA there would be no France.

	@Eurnix: I've put online the 100 greatest Dutchmen, see http://www.sporcle.com/games/ddt/grootste_nederlander . Have fun :). @hollabackitsobi: yes, the French list is not quite my choice either. The Dutch list is even more shameful though.

	i cant believe pierre bourdieu is not on this list. How about lavoisier??

	Josh:	Jan 17th, 2010 at 06:03 GMT		1 point
	WHAT?! O_O They didn't pick Jarre?? I'm shocked.

	Descartes, montaigne, pascal, cure d'ars, the little flower, Proust: what a difference an ocean makes

	BaronZbimg:	May 14th, 2010 at 12:49 GMT		2 points
	This list is very VERY questionable.

	BaronZbimg:	May 14th, 2010 at 13:00 GMT		1 point
	A few very funny things: Raymond Poulidor never won anything, both Anquetil and Hinault won 5 Tour de France Serge Reggiani, Charles Aznavour, Johnny Halliday, Sardou, Renaud, Becayd, Nicolas Hulot? Are U kidding me? None of them has notoriety outside of France A lot of jokes in that list, and a lot of men who really helped humanity go forward were left aside ... No Nicephore Niepce, no Descartes, No Laennec, no Lavoisier, No Richelieu, no La Perouse, ... the list is endless

	Quebecer:	May 29th, 2010 at 06:18 GMT		1 point
	A very questionnable list, but considering the fact that Don Cherry is in the top 10 greatest Canadians ever, I won't judge... I'd trade our 100 against your 100 anyway!

	When I saw "military leader," I assumed the quiz was a joke.
