    The entire award is predicated on the Great Man theory.

        Hooray, something to add to my resume.

        "2006 Time Magazine Person of the Year" will sound so impressive.

                    Though, on the other hand, who really deserved person of the year this year anyway? What, Jack Abramoff?

                      They could have been controversial and give it to the Iranian pres. Remember the POTY isn't limited to nice guys. But maybe they are more more concerned about negative reactions.....
