Wow... I'm flattered as fuck here that I've made some of your lists. Thank you.

To me, influence is people who exhibit several traits... they can lead the masses as it were... change peoples minds... get people to listen, and really think, and act on it. People who do their job well regardless of what that "job" is, and are revolutionary in their thinking and/or technique. And whether you like them or not, they are very hard to ignore. They are successful in what they do (or at one time WERE very successful) and are often quoted, copied, and sometimes ripped off from.

Not saying that the people I'm listing here fit into all of those categories, but they fit into most.

Not in any particular order...

Tony Morgan
Ron Cadwell
Steve Lightspeed
The Brothers Blatt
Mike Price
Rick Muenyong
Persian Kitty
Fay Sharp
Paul Fishbein
Ron Levy
The Shemp
Jenna Jameson
Helmy
Lensman

There's more but those come to mind for me...
