Gonna be honest, I only vaguely recognise the name Patrick Swayze without knowing exactly what he's famous for. An actor, I think? And I have zero idea who Paul Walker is. Anomalocarus I gather from context is an extinct animal of some sort, which is cool, but I lack the knowledge to know precisely why this specific species is highly valuable.

So Robin Williams gets my vote almost by default, even if I didn't have more reason to choose him beyond that.

I admire your dedication to contribute something to the conversation while only knowing less than half the knowledge necessary one would guess necessary to have an opinion worthy of sharing.

And yet he managed to stay more relevant to the discussion than you or me!

Wow. Unnecessary and rude. That's a great contribution to the conversation.

I meant it as a compliment! Sorry I expressed it poorly.
