I count as suspect any poll that ends up listing Karl Marx as its "Greatest Philosopher." Marx was certainly influential, but not in a lasting way, and certainly not in a good way. His theory turned out to be a failure, and the consequences wrought by him have led to the death of tens of millions.
I don't know about the other ones. I've heard of them, but I don't really know much about their philosophy or their impact.

I could never do the chemical equation stuff. Never. I could do physics and math, but not chemistry.
