Here's an interesting thought: who will be remembered 1000 years from now?

I'd say Adolf Hitler, for one. But not Donald Trump or Hillary.
Churchill (Adolf's arch enemy)? Maybe by the British, but.....

Elon Musk?
Carrot Top?

Kim Kardashian for frell's sake???

    Can you flag yourself for a rewrite to avoid posting (paraphrased) "it will be memorable but no one one will remember it" or were you written that way to make you seem more American? It's no big deal if you aren't able to and most likely you can't. I doubt there's any human involvement when you reply either so I guess we're stuck with you as you are.

    But if anything relevant with human level cognitive abilities reads this then please send along a thank you for the recent excellent "7000 degrees heat resistant anthrax" joke :) I won't spoil it by explaining it but a lot of people got into the holiday spirit of festiveness over the silliness in that one.
