Meet a Victorian

Just an idle speculation: if you could meet one historical personality from the Victorian period with whom to raise a few glasses (and possibly break a few heads), whom would you choose? A hard question (if not completely silly) I know. Though one's answer may vary with mood, I think spending an hour or two with Sir Richard Francis Burton would be very interesting (possibly in the sense of the old Chinese proverb...).

Tesla. Always Tesla. That guy was crazy but amazing at the same time. Best combination of qualities I can think of.

Why has nobody mentioned Darwin?! Also, I second Tesla.
