Yes
Just a bit of fun I saw elsewhere.

Anything you like - just name your 'six of the best'

One rule - nothing to do with camera gear.

Human Achievements / your favourite band / breakfast-cereals / Inventions / Gadgets / Sporting Moments / Paintings / Food / Actors / Historical figures / Sweets / Dog breeds / Holiday Locations / Films / Drinks / Cars - whatever you fancy pitching.

Feel free to add your own topic. Justify if you like or just post your six - there's no right or wrong as it's all subjective and just a bit of fun.

By all means quote and challenge previous suggestions though (y)

You missed out Hypatia (although, only being allowed six I can understand that choices have to be made!)
 
And you have left out the prophet Mohammed :eek: :p
Pretty sure debian haven't had a release called "the prophet mohammed", but if he was a character in Toy Story, perhaps they might in future :p .
