Dinner for 8

If you were going to invite 8 dinner guest from the past and present who would you gather at your table?

I would have:
Martin Luther King~Carl Sagan~Stephen Hawking~Bill Clinton~Rosa Parks~Sam Kinnison~My Grandmother~The Dali Lama~

And I would throw in Elmer Fud and Robin Williams to lighten up the party...This party would be far to serious without them...hahahahahhahaha

Now that I think about it I would have to have a lot of dinner parties, lots of people to meet.  Makes you stop and think doesn't it who would be good guest.
