Right. Apart from the numbering the list is pretty much as recieved from each person, I'll go through and standardise names (Queen, Prince Philip etc.) when I next get a chance.
Interesting that presumed favourites Pete and Amy seem to be a fair bit behind the trio of Thatcher, Obama and The Queen. I did start doing a full count just before New Years Eve, but I lost track of Prince Philips and closed notepad in rage.

Yeah. And there's a few that I'm guessing might be tricky to judge on. Swayze for instance I think may have denied his is terminal, yet it's still be pretty widely reported as otherwise, could be wrong, I can't honestly say that I've done that much research. Guess I'll worry about people like that if they die.

You can if you want. PM me. Whilst I understand an uneasiness at the morbid nature of predicting the people's deaths, I think that by considering your list your thoughts will have been with their lives, both in the present and in the past. The list is a celebration of those who are notable enough to be remembered by many when their end comes, for both good and bad reasons; as well as a realisation that for many, their impact will be felt far beyond the direct actions their mortality allows. Or some such bullshit.
