Guest Guest Posted July 19, 2015 Terry Pratchett and Sir Nicholas Winton are the two most obvious ones for me Dito on that. If I was making up the list, I would much sooner have put someone like Winton on than put someone like, say, Harper Lee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,144 Posted July 19, 2015 I didn't expect Pratchett to go so soon. People can live a long time with Alzheimer's. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 19, 2015 Otoh names like Bouteflika who were secreting away twice to foreign lands for medical treatment in late 2014 seemed like stone cold locks only to appear horribly poor choices a few months later as the dust settled. Hey, it's the reaper, no tellin. I know I regret putting him on any of my DP lists much less getting sucked into putting it on all of them. Grrr. Still, Abdullah and Bianchi aren't chances you take leaving em off. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted July 20, 2015 I will post a comment on this when someone on my shadow list goes who was not on the main list. Terry Pratchett was a total shock. Yes he was ill but still seemed to be active. Goes to show. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
