35. Feynman or Hawking
Utterly brilliant men...I'm convinced that our children will look on them as we look on Einstein. Kip Thorne should probably be on that list too. I met Mr. Thorne at CalTech a number of years back and had a brief discussion with him about gravitational wave deflection (anti-gravity). I'm pretty well versed in all forms of physics, but the man just blew me away with his innate understanding of the workings of our universe on a quantum scale (for the record, he stated that anti-gravity devices may be theoretically possible, but he wasn't holding his breath).
