From a blog (http://www.mentalfloss.com/) I read:
Every Friday, I post a series of unrelated questions meant to spark conversation in the comments. Answer one, answer all, respond to someone else's reply, whatever you want. Very casual. On to this week's topics of discussion...
Steve Jobs' death is all anyone has talked about for several days now. I can't remember too many other people who commanded such posthumous attention. Michael Jackson? Ronald Reagan? This is a two-part question: who else do you remember being in this category? And what living people do you think will get the same treatment (hopefully a long time from now)?
Princess Di, Mother Theresa, Michael Jackson whoever is famous and dead, until the next big topic comes up.
One that I think will get huge attention is Billy Graham. I hope he lives for years more, but I think his passing will stir people deeply.
Jimmy Carter, but by media more than people I think.
Queen Elizabeth
Madonna
Ted Turner, I didn't know who S.Jobs was before he died.
I agree on B.Graham
I agree w/ Billy Graham and most def Bill Cosby.
