Which famous engineer should be on an element14 sticker?

About five years ago, we printed up some element14 stickers with Nikola Tesla on them.  i just found the last remaining one in my desk drawer which made me think that we should have some new ones printed. 

 

We're also going to print some with Ada Lovelace.

Who else should get this high honor?  Here's our suggestions, "vote" for two in the comments below!

Thomas Alva Edison

Michael Faraday

Beulah Louise Henry

Heinrich Hertz

Katherine Johnson

Hedy Lamarr

    My two votes would go to (in order):

    1. Michael Faraday for his work on electromagnetism.
    2. Tommy Flowers for designing and building the first programmable electronic computer.

    From the list, my votes go to Michael Faraday and Hedy Lamarr.

     

    I would also add Richard P. Feynman to the list, not only for his contribution to science, but most of all for his natural talent and ability to share his knowledge and inspire many generations of students.

    Gotta have James Clerk Maxwell in the list!

     

    I'd also add Nick Holonyak, father of the visible LED, who is from here in Illinois!
