Augustus Caesar, Nennius, and Berthold von Moosburg (the last one being so I can give him a smacking).

Hmm... I'd love to meet Shakespeare. That'd be fun. And Julius Ceasar. And Napoleon Bonaparte. I'd probably like to meet Homer, Will Durant, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Alexander the Great. Others too, of course.
If it was only one person... I'd have to say... um... George Washington?

And yes, it does count as history. Fifty years from now, twenty years from now would be, as it would be thirty years ago, in fifty years.

Voltaire. Oh the fun we'd have; roaming the continents of the world, offending pontiffs, and all at once recognizing that the best of all possible worlds....isn't this one.

After talking to the two of them, the conversation with Alexander Hamilton would be pretty interesting.

Ben Franklin. Seems like a fun kind of guy. Except for that "early to bed, early to rise" nonsense.

I'd meet Buddha, though it'd be a little difficult since my Pali and Sanskrit is non-existant at best. We'd probably just end up saying Karma to each other and nodding.

I'd want to meet Emily Bronte, Cicero, Richard III (mostly just to find out if all the rumors are true), Zheng He (he seems like a cool guy, though a little arrogant at times), Mohammed (because I think it'd be interesting to hear what he had to say, note I wouldn't really want to meet Christ, because I believe in him, and it's a little scary to think of meeting your God, Mohammed I can think of as just an influential man), Mendel (because I am amazed at the man's intelligence and diligence), and Oswald Avery .

Quite a crowd. What group activities would you have planned? Maybe you could put them all on a bus and show them Disneyworld.

My great-grandfather, who I hear was quite a guy. And Oscar Wilde. Definitely, Oscar Wilde. And I would bring along my wee recorder to get a record of his voice.
