Five People You'd Have Over For Dinner

1) Rosa Luxemburg (because she's a left-wing and feminist hero).
2) Florence Welch (because she's my favourite musician).
3) Brian Cox (doesn't need explaining).
4) Buenaventura Durruti (because he fought fascists and seems interesting).
5) Emma Goldman (see others' arguments about forces of nature. She was one of said forces).

Allende, Jesus and Orwell could come as +1s, if they wanted to.

FLORENCEEEEEE! BRIAAAAAN! I approve of your choices. *nods*

I totally forgot about Rosa and Orwell, really. But yeah, they would be pretty nice to have over for dinner.
EDIT: And how could I forget to at least mention Shakespeare?

Hmm how about a Pot Luck with Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsey, Rachael Ray, Bobby Flay, and Wolfgang Puck

Or better yet Jesus, Mohamed, Buddha, Laozi, and Moses for the religious debate to end them all.

the first 4 because you could hear both sides of the story, and the 5th because it sounds like something he would enjoy and make funny.

Glad I rate. I could not limit myself to just five NSers. There are too many people here that are worthy.

I had to cut out quite a lot of people. But I think this setup is quite diverse and able to hold a decent conversation.

And none are prone to hating any of the others. Good choice.
