I had bookmarked a link to his work and then lost it in a computer crash aways back. I couldn't remember his name so I never researched to find a link.
That was really an eye opener and can't wait to go over to link and check it out again. 
The Tufte article was interesting. It was a bit OTT on accolades. I worry he might have a flaw in his work somewhere when there's such overwhelming praise for his methods....Still, he's a fascinating person. I wish there had been visual examples in the article of how his charting/graphic design was an improvement over earlier, or other ways, of exhibiting data for those of us unenlightened about the various existing ways charting statistics though. But, still a good read and talking about how "Power Point" slides might have caused the "Challenger" disaster and how much he dislikes Excell and Power Point/Microsoft to display complicated data.
