Please forward this to letters@time; I can't connect with them: have difficulty believing you omitted Tiger Woods and the gov of Calif on you 100 list. Tiger is the most famous and influential entertainer in the world, and the gov is certainly more influential; than half of your people. I've only been a subscriber for 68 years, but these omissions are the biggest screwup during that time, even more so than the anti-Luce liberalism that has pervaded Time. Ward Rosen
