Happy trails, Randy...

It's been all over the web this morning that Randy Pausch's battle with pancreatic cancer has finally come to it's inevitable conclusion. We overlapped at CMU as grad students, and his work on Alice has been hugely important in teaching, for which I am very thankful. There's a lot that could be said... he gave the world a beautiful example of dying eloquently. Randy, you will be missed. Permalink
