I picked "Mark Twain" although I'd like to have lunch with Samuel Clemens and discuss "Mark Twain."

;)

It was between Einstein and Twain, but I picked Twain because I think he has the most interesting character of the bunch (see: the biggest character). Einstein would be fascinating no doubt, but as far as scientists go, I'd actually rather have lunch with Carl Sagan, because he'd probably be better at putting things in context and boiling complicated scientific principles down to the basics.

After the TV show draft I did on another forum, we're now doing an historical figures draft. I had to go with Einstein since I picked him early in that draft.

Oh, and I picked him early because besides being a pretty smart guy he has insight and experience with stuff beyond science.

I would love to sit down with all of them for different reasons. But, for entertainment and imagination, I had to pick Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens).
