I am glad that Logica Universalis has been chosen for a Memorial Special Issue devoted to Jaakko Hintikka. It makes sense for many reasons. He himself published a paper with a very nice title in our journal: Which Mathematical Logic is the Logic of Mathematics?, LU, Volume 6 (2012)

- In May 2008 he was taking part to the 14th Latin-American Symposium on Mathematical Logic in Paraty, Brazil. Jointly with Catherine Chantilly I produced an interview/film with him, part of a series of movies on important philosophers we are producing.

- He was the secret speaker of the 3rd UNILOG that took place in Estoril, near Lisbon in 2010. He came from Boston despite the erruption of Eyjafjallajökull entailing the largest air-traffic shut-down since World War II, proving he was not afraid even of Volcanos.
