List of Idols

On twitter just now, I noticed that I (very) frequently change my "list of idols". So, I'm gonna make a full list of my current idols, and possibly look back on it later and add to it or just laugh about it. Anyways, here goes:
  • Salman Khan. Founder of Khan Academy. Graduated MIT in 1998. Is the same race as me. Is awesome.
  • Paul Ekman. Innovator in reading of facial expressions. Created METT. Is also awesome.
  • Sherlock Holmes. Although he is a fictional character, he's pretty much the ideal genius. He is a "good guy", but works on his own (like batman). He uses his genius in a way that astounds people and always helps. Is also pretty awesome.
I think three is a good number to start with. I've had countless idols in the past, but these are the three that came to my mind immediately when I thought "idol".
