Oh, and here's the link I used to get some of the names of notable people: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Righteous_among_the_Nations_by_country For what it's worth, everyone on that list did something notable and is noble; a more apt heading may be "Famous People".

@redsxfenway I think the risk to ones own life is an important part of the title. Although his actions were certainly good, the article doesn't mention whether they put his own life in jeopardy.

@skogs: that is only one of the possibilites. "Risk to the rescuer’s life, liberty or position." He definitely put his house seat on the line. Since he was facilitating 'illegal immigration.' he also put his liberty in jeopardy.

You should organize the quiz in descending order by number of righteous instead of alphabetically.

@redsxfenway Upon further investigation it seems you are quite correct. Perhaps you are right that he does deserve the title.
