I would imagine (and, I see poke below has mentioned this off-hand) that people are...not that interesting.
Oh, I am sure you are. Like, personally. But, really, would you want to resurrect a random 1850s person? Aside from kitsch or perhaps historical interests (if they were an interesting or influential personality), there are certainly better ways to spend your time.
It's not going to be like Encino Man, I am pretty sure.
Edit: I don't think I agree...but I'm not sure yet.
Actually, I think that historians would love to wake up random people from way back when, whether or not they were famous at the time.

Sorry, I didn't mean to do that, and I don't know how it happened.
