Meeting with the deceased

Back when this academic year in UCLA started, our floor did a Q&A session one night, going around asking questions to each other. The following was one of the questions:

For one time only, if you could have dinner with, or at least meet (again), 5 deceased people from this world, who would they be?

Simple, really. Just answer with the deceased people you'd most want to have one last chat with. No fictional characters (they must have existed in this world at one point in time). I'll post in my ones after the first page.

Biggie, Hitler, Kurt Cobain, che guevara, and Adadm Yauch

1. Nobunaga Oda
2. Musashi Miyamoto
3. Masamune Date
4. Aristotle
5. King Arthur(?)EDIT: since he probbly didn't exist..
5. Plato

Most are Jap, since I'm intrigued about what their real lives were like, and ask what they would think about how they are portrayed nowadays! XD

There's debate on whether he existed. Camelot sure didn't at any rate.

1. My grandad, Jack Dienst
2. Hitler.

I actually strangely can't think of anybody else. I'll have to come back to this later while I ponder on it.

Really? My whole life was a lie!

1. Sid Vicious
2. GG Allen
3. 2 Pac
4. Ted Bundy
5. Carl Yung

Hm, I dont know many deceased people that I would really like too.
George Washington
John Larken/John Scatman

Some japanese people bacause their were games based of them like

Like Itsame said Masamune Date, Nobunaga
Hakuoki
I guess the Shinsengumi members.

I know this is more then 5, for the last 3, just any of these.

Good thread Art!

If all this is at one meeting...that will be an interesting meeting.

My Grandfather ( From my dads side ) ( died when I was a teen )
My Uncle ( died before I was born )
My Grandfather ( from my mothers side ( died before my mom even married my dad
My grandma ( from my mothers side ) ( same as grampa from mammas side )
My female cousin ( who died before she was born) I wished I met her, would be a great feeling ) ( She would have been a little older then me )

Yeah I don't wanna meet any dead famous people, just wanna meet the ones who was supposed to be around, but weren't.

I wish these people didn't die, because these people would have changed lives on a planetary scale.

My Mom would have been happy and could have her mom and dad to talk to when times got rough

My unborn female cousin could have changed her family, and the cold heart of her brother who lives now.

My grampa from My dad's side would have taught us important lessons and we would have all been mature family members.

My uncle could have changed his family which without him are now rotten to the core.

Yeah these people could have changed lives, but I guess God took them because of their good and gentle but strong principles.

I know it is personal stuff, but I just wanna be honest.

The 5 people between the ages of 20 and 30 who suddenly died today in some unforeseeable event. I think they would be the most interesting people to talk to because they are freshly dead and probably hold the strongest ties to being alive. What they are feeling and thinking would be really interesting to know.

That said, I would rather meet with 5 fictional characters than any former person.

Vladimir Uljanov aka Lenin
Stanley Kubrick
Olof Palme
Frank Sinatra
Akira Kurosawa

That's about it.
