 A few fun points:

1) Most recognizable were Jack Nicholson (every single ballot got Nicholson correct!), Dora, Koyanagi-san, Morris Chang, Bob Patti and my granddaughter .

2) Most misspelled name - Ron Homuler or is it Huemoller or as one respondant labeled him  hummuler. Ron - They knew who you were but had trouble with the spelling!
