Congrats to new ACM fellows

Congrats to ALL of the ACM Fellows which were annouced here.

There are several theorists among them. I could try to list them or count them; however, the term theorist is not that well defined so I'll pass.

I wonder if any of them could use an additional $289.00...

  5. I guess many ACM Fellow-theoreticians aren't SIGACT members. For example:

    -Cook
    -Pippenger
    -Hartmanis
    -Herlihy
    -Karger
    -Papadimitrou

    etc.

  6. I meant new 2009 Fellows that are SIGACT members. Loads of older Fellows are SIGACT members.
