The concept of the H.U. isn't the only concept 'Chaos' didn't get; everyone, even 'Chaos', matters to someone, and made an impact on somebody. I liked the concept of the H.U. right from your first one. I can read about the prominent anywhere, and usually hear more about them than I care to. The people you pick may not have the notoriety, but usually their contributions are seen or used daily, or were basic to developing what is now commonplace. In the rare cases that I don't recognize either their name or their contribution, I can still appreciate what they are being honored for by you -- and I will have learned something.
If 'chaos' had bothered to read at the top of [the free edition] -- 'Dispatched this week to readers in 195 countries' -- he might have realized that some who he considers 'more important' people actually aren't known in other countries where other people might be more well known. To be quite honest with you I had absolutely no idea who Chuck Jones [or] the 'newspaper guy' was but now, thanks to TRUE, I know what both did.
