If you start a thread on the actual philosopher John Locke, I'm sure people will respond. I probably would, as much of my history class was on the Enlightenment period.

I'm ignoring the OP description because I don't watch lost. I'm going to assume it's the philosopher John Locke and vote for him.

I've never watched an entire Star Wars film and have only seen 1 episode of Lost.  That said, suppose I'll through my support behind John Locke based on namesake (who I'm guessing is now, sadly, less famous then this fictional character).

Oh, I was thinking the philosopher John Locke.
That woulda been one interesting poll.

I sometimes joke to my wife that once we get something on DVD, we're doomed to never watch it.  Whenever I suggest watching a DVD, she often says, "why watch that now? we can watch that any time. let's see what's on TV now."  And of course, that "any time" never comes. LOL

Anakin, mainly because after watching 1 and a half seasons, I really couldn't care less about any of the characters on Lost as they all annoyed the hell out of me.
Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005
