(bonus points if you can guess where the list comes from)

You may vote for up to 5 so this doesn't turn into a Pryor vs Carlin thing.  And how do you think Robin Williams stacks up?

He did some stuff early on in Canada...I think he hosted a radio show or something.  I only know because Marc Maron has a weird fascination with the guy so asks every SNL alum that comes on his podcast to tell stories about Michaels.

Nobody guessed what the list was.  It is a list of people who have received the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.

Both Twain and Pryor were great commentators on the times they lived in.  The style was vastly different, but they both cut to the bone with jokes.
