Ideally we would gaze up at my study wall, snifter of brandy in had, and discuss the merits and, in the case of my particular heroes, the shortcomings of each with languorous deliberation. I might consider a series of blogs with a short bio for each hero but that would not involve nearly as much brandy. [the edit box is even whiter on my monitor at work and the yellow is a touch too bright :-(] I think it would be very unsatisfying (and trivializing to my heroes) to throw up a naked list with no commentary.

Even though they make up a large % of US population, I'd venture to say your audience has a different demographic. I think we've evolved smaller stacks to repurpose wetware in favor of higher information processing throughput. In any case, I look forward to seeing your walls in the years ahead.
