Foreign Policy recently announced their list of top 100 global thinkers. A lot of the usual suspects, but the list gets fun at #71 with Ray Kurzweil, followed by #72 Jamais Cascio, and #73 Nick Bostrom.

The Swedish newspapers made it a big story that professor Rosling at #96 was the only swede - they completely missed Nick :-)
