Great list Isaiah

Thanks for compiling it. I grew up ( doing reports in school about ) most of the authors and reading the writings of many on your list. I agree everyone should spend some time reading their works.

Excellent list Isaiah. Now if we could get more of our people to venerate them and keep them alive
