Q. The list starts with Charles Lindbergh in 1927, the American aviation marvel credited with the first non-stop flight from New York City, USA to Paris, France. The lastest entrant to the list being Barack Obama in 2012 joins the elite club of being affiliated to the list twice alongside greats like George W Bush, Ronald Reagan, Lyndon B Johnson, Harry S Truman, General George Marshall, Dwight D Eisenhower, Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin, Mikhail Gorbachev, Bill Clinton, Deng Xiaoping and Franklin D Roosevelt (not twice but a whopping 3 times). The list also has its surprise features like Adolf Hitler and Richard Nixon (who also won it twice) and sometimes non-human entrants like the computer and our planet Earth. But the twist is if I say even you have featured in this list, what am I talking about?

Enough clues to set you through.
Good answer...they have all been nominated TIME Person of The Year except for the computer being TIME Machine of The Year 1982 and the Endangered Earth being TIME Planet of The Year 1988. Surprised how you came in this list?
ReplyDeleteActually, TIME magazine recognized the millions of people (including you) as TIME Person of The Year in 2006 who anonymously contributed user-generated content to the GNU/Linux operating system, the wikis (including Wikipedia), YouTube, MySpace, Facebook and the multitudes of other websites featuring user contribution.
