Who are these people?

[Cole Matthews]

Heres a hint. Though friends i doubt he took her to Breakfast at Tiffanys.

[blake_logan]

Looks an awful lot like Gertrude Stein to me.

[Cole Matthews]

Not Stein. I'll give another clue.  The author's main character said this about a bird.  

 

"That was the only time I ever heard Atticus say it was a sin to do something, and I asked Miss Maudie about it."

[MikeL]

Harper Lee...great clue!

[Cole Matthews]

That is correct! Harper Lee it is! Your turn!

[MikeL]

This may be easy...or not.

Quite true.

[C J]

Crime?  Must be the old cook from school!

[MikeL]

It's time for someone to guess.

[Aditus]

I know you like to choose someone who has been in the news lately. For good or bad reasons. I'll have a look.

[Zombie]

is Addy plotting to win?

[MikeL]

I quite naturally think of someone who is on my mind.

 

I think several people know who it is.  Go ahead; tell us.

[Cole Matthews]

It's PD James isnt it?

[MikeL]

Yes it is, Cole.

 

Phyllis Dorothy James, The Right Honourable The Baroness James of Holland Park, OBE
 

 

Your turn.

[Cole Matthews]

 

This guy made some of the things that led to us being able to communicate with one another like this.

[Cole Matthews]

Okay, another hint. He invented so many things we imagine one of his creations above our heads.

[C J]

It must be Edison then.

[Cole Matthews]

Bingo!!!! Ghost is right of course and you are up!  Let's see what you have to show us.

[C J]

OK, since everybody would know anyone I could think of myself I dug up one I figured somebody might get, or maybe not.  Anyway, good luck!

 

 

 

                                                                                             

[Zombie]

is it your Dad filling in his tax return?

[C J]

[KJames]

Oh, seriously....Harvey Milk isn't THAT unrecognizable!

[C J]

I did what I thought would work, and I doubt very many people know who he is.  Anyway, put your own pick up, it's your turn since you put his name on.

[KJames]

Okay...your clue:  We might all be speaking German, but for this some 60-years gone Hero.  I'll give thumbs up if you can 1) name him, 2) say what he is credited as, 3) tell what he did, and 4) provide the name of the thing he created a solution for.
