If science fiction had a Mount Rushmore, I'd nominate Heinlein, Asimov, Clarke and Bradbury. Who would you immortalize?

As my idol, Asimov first off. I thought of Jules Verne too, with Philip K. Dick (many films from his ideas) and either ERB or Philip Jose Farmer.
Originally, I went with your picks “The Big 3” and Bradbury. But “Sci-fi Gene” made me ponder HGW and I have to admit that he really deserves a spot. But do you kick out Ray? Tough call, but yeah.
Bradbury never considered himself a science fiction writer, so perhaps Wells would be a better choice, but you could argue that Jules Verne is just as worthy. It’s tough to choose!
Oh good question! H.G.Wells, Asimov, Le Guin and Dick. Shame only room for four though…
