I was going to choose to name people who have contributed to the improvement of the craft of linen weaving.
Yes, I like Bhartrihari. We were talking on the 'phone only last week. What a coincidence. I particularly like his ideas about the aspirational equivalence of modified conduct-enhancing probabilities.
Next philosopher:
Catharine Cockburn .

Edmund Burke. His way of describing people's behaviour predicted the emergence of the existentialists, I think.

I always thought Frank Spencer was a good philosopher........ Or maybe Harry Potter. Now he had a philosophers stone.
Hmmmmmmmm, I'll go for Francis Bacon.

This is a vegan site. You can't have Franky Bacon. You could have Francis Tofu.
Gregory of Nyssa. He was the one who said that thinking is the art of talking without saying anything.

Sowwee Gliondrach.............. What an unfortunate name to have. Actually have a colleague at work with the same surname. Think I would change it by de-poll!
Thomas Hobbes

Immanuel Kant. Although he preferred to say that he can.
I liked his idea that the ethical choice is always the most elegant, vis-a-vis the unchanging aspects of the metaphysical analysis of the unconscious promptings of learned morality.

Jean Jacques Rousseau

No.
Immanuel Kant, again. For the 'K' this time. After all, he did say that practicality is to be admired and that what is practical can be something that saves time.

As this is a difficult subject we will finish with perhaps the greatest philosopher of all time:
Nitram Nagev.
We can start another subject now. Flowers.
Anenome.
