	Please make only last names acceptable.

	Fidelio:	Nov 13th, 2009 at 14:54 GMT		4 points
	And "Pope John Paul II" and "Pope John Paul" should both be acceptable.

	Looking at the list from the source and Gore is not on there.

	Homer Simpson is more influential than Steve Jobs and Osama Bin Laden? Really?

	brm_ist_hitler:	Nov 13th, 2009 at 18:57 GMT		8 points
	Homer Simpson is absolutely more influential than Steve Jobs. But Rowling, Armstrong, Jordan, Bono... what a joke list. Serious people do not read USAToday and this is why.

	why does it accept 'the' for Francis Collins?

	eurythmech:	Nov 13th, 2009 at 19:59 GMT		3 points
	You didn't even follow your own source...epic fail!

	johnlk:	Nov 14th, 2009 at 21:40 GMT		4 points
	the list is from 2007, so it's not the last 25 years

	luigi:	Nov 15th, 2009 at 07:24 GMT		3 points
	If you are supposed to follow the source, then why is Al Gore on the list instead of Ryan White? Also, in response to a previous post-John Paul I and John Paul II were completely different people, so I think you should have to type in the entire title of the person.

	dtro:	Nov 15th, 2009 at 18:14 GMT		3 points
	Yup, winning a couple bike races after recovering from an illness is definitely more important than say becoming the first black president of South Africa after apartheid or overseeing the break up of the USSR and Russia's transition to democracy.

	Try accepting just "Oprah"

	BagelPopper:	Dec 23rd, 2009 at 00:06 GMT		2 points
	I would clarify that you mean American presidents. I get what you're saying, but just to make the quiz a little clearer (since you signify South African leader and Chinese leader)

	Stewart:	Dec 23rd, 2009 at 19:27 GMT		3 points
	You should probably accept just "Deng" for the Chinese leader since that was his surname. And I agree that the source is pretty ridiculous - but then, by the time I got to the 'cartoon character' hint, that was obvious.

	Stewart:	Dec 23rd, 2009 at 19:28 GMT		3 points
	Also, I'd suggest accepting "john paul ii" and perhaps even "john paul 2" as variants.

	Anonymous42:	Dec 25th, 2009 at 18:26 GMT		4 points
	Not enough alternate answers. "Bin Laden" stands out, as do "Oprah" and "Deng", as mentioned by some previous posters.

	rkavin:	Dec 30th, 2009 at 22:29 GMT		2 points
	Should accept Bin Laden and John Paul II

	arelagord:	Jan 3rd, 2010 at 19:47 GMT		0 points
	COmplete joke of a list, for starters how is Sir Tim Berners-Lee not on there yet Sergey Brin and Larry Page are, they would have nothing if it wasn't for him, same with Bill Gates to a large extent.

	paulio_ham:	Jan 30th, 2011 at 17:52 GMT		1 point
	I'm surprised Mark Zuckerbeg isn't on there, or more importantly Matt Ramme the creator of sporcle!

	davebesag:	Jan 31st, 2011 at 01:33 GMT		1 point
	Jordan shouldn't be there. Fine if it was a list only confined to the USA but his influence outside is pretty low. Woods would have been a better choice. Will you also accept Deng as that is his surname?
