Which famous person would you bring back to life?

If you could bring a famous person back to life so it was as if they had never died, who would you choose?

I would bring back Madman Muntz. If you don't know who he is, don't you ever dare say the word TV. In fact, just go back to saying television.

We don't generally delete threads here unless they are offensive or duplicates ... you'd be surprised at how far back the threads in this forum go.

hendrix. it would've been really interesting just to see where he was going musically in the seventies, as i don't think he peaked before he died.

Janice Joplin, Monet, the dude who did the chapel on the church ceiling, George Washington. Needed a good commander. Oh and there was this other dude, there's some whiskey that has his name I can't think of that was in the American Revolution, oh well can't think of his name. And a scientist or two. . . maybe the Wright Brother's oh I've got it Porche. . . .the dude that was alive when Hitler was. . . credited for the Volkwagen bug plus. . .The telephone dude too. . . .the one that invented it. Oh, and Charles Dickens, It was the best of Times. . .It was the Worst of Times he actually got paid by the word is why he's hard to read, was published in magazines and was read chapter by chapter.

Difficult to decide:
Hitler - since I brought him back, he would be in my power and would get pineapples shoved up his ass and other nastiness. Just out of spite for his being so nasty. But then there are so many who compete for deserving that fate that how can I decide which one to call to account?

Some Neandertal - lots of good reasons. (Hey, even if the individual isn't famous, Neandertals as a group are famous, yes?)

Mozart - I'd love to hear what he had to say about modern music and see where he went with it.

Cthulhu - end of the world is always something to look forward to.

I want to bring back James Hutton because he laid down the foundation for geology, geomorphology and meteorology.
He was born in June 1726 in Edinburgh, but maybe today he is needed in the USA?
