Baseball great Billy Mays said "no thanks" to being spokesman.

"Beisbol been very, very good to me."

I love that cartoon where Clippy interprets a Word document that starts (something like...) “I can’t take it any more...” Then Clippy concludes, “I see you’re writing a suicide note. Please choose your method: rope, gun, overdose...”

Thanks for the link.
Time is full of it, though: over half of the list is environmentalist crap.

thanks for the story, I am going to wait for the list to be posted here since I do not want to help time magazine survive.

Good grief... There are STILL alegedly intelligent people who believe DDT -- 14th on the list -- is a BAD THING!? The power to eradicate malaria is a BAD THING?? I guess that just demonstrates the power of leftist propaganda.

Rachel Carson and her baseless dogma is responsible for the deaths of more people than Hitler and his baseless dogma.

I guess they had Malaria almost completely eradicated until the UN banned DDT.
