The Best At What They Do
Clark Benson I give Maximum Respect to all on this list. Each is, IMHO, the best alive at What They Do.
Note: at present, this list is almost all Americans. As it grows, that will change, though it will likely always slant towards the U S of A for a number of different reasons, which I may elucidate on at some point.
List is not ranked by any particular metric - when I think of someone to add I just stick them at the bottom. I've turned on the VoteRank feature to let anyone vote on it and have it rerank once there are a decent amount of votes - but everyone on the list belongs.
Update: sad to have had to remove an entry from this list for the first time. RIP Steve Jobs.

List Criteria: Currently active at What They Do. OK if not at peak performance as long as they haven't become hacks
