This question was brought up for a paper I had to write. I ended up choosing Andy Warhol, because he basically changed people's view on life. Just wondering what you guys think about it.
Discuss...

Hmm, I'm thinking it was the planet that used to exist between Earth and Mars...
That had the biggest impact on the planet...
To see the proof, go look at that giant ball of cheese floating up in the night(and sometimes day) sky...
Bam!

Obama in all honesty.
Usually this is an all american thing, "yeah new president" etc.
World wide obama is known and everyone is depending on him.

When you say impact, do you mean positive, or negative?

Sky, doesn't matter, and if you're thinking what I think you're thinking than Hitler did come up quite a few times.

The British. Had there been no british, there would be no americans, therefore there would be no one to hate. :P

Speaking of King George W. Bush...
Here's a political cartoon on him that I found to be quite true...

The biggest Impact on the world, The Tsunami back in the christmas of '03 (i think) scientists were shocked to discover that it had Moved the earth off it's axis slightly, resulting in the rapid climate Change we are seeing these years

That would be my second. Obama becoming president is extremely historical. This is an inspiration to millions of people, I'm sure.

we don't even know how obama impacted so far.
All we know is that he shut down Guantanamo Bay within the first week of his term
BIG UPS!

An impact I'd have to say would be Morrie if you don't know who he is he's was a old man who died in 1996, you read about him in Tuesdays with Morrie. While he was dying, he impacted the world with lil interviews, he talked about not looking into the future nor the past just stick the present and he was always helping people all over the world replying to their letters giving them advise that they needed and stuff

The Roswell UFO crash of July 7, 1947.

ahh, now we have opened a new bag of worms, roswell was a Big mess up for Area 51, The government tried to hide it but thye did a very poor Job, hoping we would have all forgotten about it, This was one of the very few of these claimed "UFO" sightings i actually believe in people weren't as "aware" of Aliens or expecting them to be seen, i don't however think it had a great impact, just raised our awareness of another lifeform.
And on 9/11 that is not really an unexpected impact, the moment it happened we all knew who was responsible, who else other than Warlord Bush!, it is a huge conspiricy everyone knows, it was broadcast on the Tv and alot of conspiricy groups on the Internet, just look it up and you can see the proof and the HARD evidence of how It was destroyed

Have you seen the Southpark episode about 9/11? They make it out to be a conspiracy about a conspiracy - i.e. the government didn't actually do it, but they want people to think they did so that they appear more powerful. I would actually believe Southpark's version over the "traditional" government conspiracy. ;)

First of all, you have no idea if it was Bush or not. You can not read minds, you are not apart of the Government. And, you speak for yourself, not for others. Second, of course people are going to say it's a conspiracy, some people do not like Bush, from what I've heard. So again, of course, some people went and started a rumor that is was a conspiracy. For now, we have absolutely no "hardcore" evidence that it was, in fact Bush.
