Noah's Ark 2012

So, if you had to pick people, based on their hobbies or professions, who would you select if we had one ship to get off the planet before it was hit with a non-survivable disaster?

Top on my list:
Comedians
Pharmacist with a good knowledge of drugs
Botanist, who will help figure out plant life on another planet.
Old soldiers who have perspective and have learned to control their trigger fingers.


Low on the list:
(1) I'm not sure religious leaders will be necessary if you have enough comedians on board. Anyway, one of them will probably convince everyone to take the poison laced kool-aid rather than to face a future of rationing.

(2) Actuaries who will constantly remind you of your low chances of survival.

(3) Capitalist who will figure out how to prey on the weakest, selling them off for food and profit.

What does your list look like?
