Do we still have characters like those in the past.
There was -
George Bernard Shaw
Sir John Betjeman
Rupert Brooke
Yeats
Noel Coward
Winston Churchill
Oscar Wilde
Virginia Woolf
Bertrand Russell
Edith Sitwell
All very colourful people, to name but few.
So, who do we have in this day and age?

Hi, the bogus man,
I didn't say they were nice! I am not suffering a bout of nostagia. I'd go to another place for that.
I just want to see the lists.
You made a valid point though...

Hello, Eric S.
I didn't know Lewis Black. I looked up his web site, I think I'd like him very much!
I will ask around my friends to see if they know of him, I'll certainly look for him in future.
Thank you for answering.
