Um... if you take this Pepsie challenge, I promise I will never give you a Harrier JumpJet no matter how many Pepsi points you think you've earned. And I'm really only looking for a couple (two) names, Any other backstories are a total bonus.
If you're wondering, well... I'm wondering just how much we lose in the generational abstractions that occlude truths as facts or popular fictions as the years pass.
For example, I really have no grasp of why boys the age of my grandpa wanted to fuck Gracie Allen so badly - I did see a lot of George Burns' later movies, and I got to thinkin' many years ago when my dad sat me down and made me both listen and contemplate the song, "I Wish I was 18 again" by her widower.
Don't be obtuse! Of course I dismissed it, but even then as an 18 or so year old boi, I realized that at some point in my life I would realize that what my father was subjecting me to was so fucking significant (and fleeting), that I would eventually come to understand what he was conveying to me.
And now we have a clueless population of snot-nosed children yet again, for the innumerable time since time began, that is incapable of comprehending a simple paradigm - NO asshole - Not of Burns and Allen. Geez! But if you need to start there then okay, please do that.
It's like one of those little maze puzzles you penciled in the escape route for when your parents took you to one of those stupid restaraunts that had the foresight to keep the kids quiet by occupying their interests while their dinners were cooking. The alternative was others enduring the wailing lamentations of snot nosed brats who wouldn't wait patiently on their favorite dish to be plated and delivered to their table.
Well, whatev. Most folks are cowards, and your likely amongst them - but if your'e not, please feel free to accept this challenge to give me just two names - unrelated personnas that have left indellible marks upon the subtext of everyday everythings that you may not even know you invoke and stand upon the shoulders of each and everyday.
The hints are there, you can be distracted, sidelined, and offer up something other than what I'm actually looking for and even that would be most excellent!!! I'm merely hoping to help you excercise your mind, recollections, and ability to research things that are buried deep within the Dark Abcesses of your Mind.
Wanna play? I'll continue to engage you if you like, if you miss the mark, or even better, bring out aspects that I've not thought of myself as to how these things became and remain so significant to me even to this very day.
"Jim, your mission, if you choose to accept this, is..." Don't let that fucking tape self-destruct in five seconds!

Does this work?:
> Derek Bailey and John Cage allowed me to do informatics without the paradigms that IT and social systems foster on our respective communities.
> I infact got to meet Derek as a young student, shortly before he died.
> He was forgiving of a naive youth asking him why there had been so much attention to him in the preceding months.
