Well, at least philosophy was the cool thing in your youth. In my youth it 
was completely gone. ;)

Sartre and the french are completely incomprehensible to me, and just 
word-diarrhea if you ask me. So I always found existentialists not very 
impressive. Then I found Jaspers and he did have some interesting 
thoughts. A lot of it does read more like inspirational poetry, but there 
are some things there that I appreciate. So I usually find philosophers by 
looking at who they were inspired by. So in Jaspers there's some 
Nietzsche, and some Kierkegaard, and since I like Nietzsche, I figured the 
dane might be next on the list. Alternatively, move up a generation and 
see how is/was inspired by Jaspers.
