To start this one out, I voted for the Beatles. Yes, yes, I fully realize that Churchill's contribution to our present day prosperity and well-being is beyond measure but still... If Churchill made today possible, the Beatles made it so much fun.
Wonder what they might have accomplished had they featured John Cleese on keyboards? ("Eric the Half a Bee, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!")
Hmmm... I'm a tad disappointed. I would have thought that the Beatles would be higher at this point. Possibly if I had limited the poll to Yanks? (But that wouldn't have been right.)
Plus, I would have picked "Other" for the #2 spot since there are so many to choose from. Who received that one "other" vote??
