That was fun and I'm sure that I'm not the only one wanting to protest at a number of omissions (in my case Livingstone, Rachmaninov and FW de Klerk come to mind). I have two other observations - why do we have to arrive at no 33 before we find a woman? And why no poets?

That's what I'm saying! Some of the most famous people that we would know are not recognized a lot on Pantheon. That is where I got the data from.
