Congrats to Professor Judea Pearl! Though I did not take any of his classes when I was at UCLA, in chance encounters he gave me a very good impression - nice, intelligent, and unassuming. I ended up using a lot of his materials (Bayesian analysis) after college in my projects... Here's a Tagxedo I made of today's announcement in the shape of UCLA's logo: http://daily.tagxedo.com/march-15-uclas-judea-pearl-named-20...
