In other words he's yoda but also a mischievous pervert--DavidLiao and TeraBell? think he's awesome.

A new addition to the PhysicsDepartment in '03-'04. Teaches courses including TheoMech?, ElectricityAndMagnetism? recitation, FieldsAndWaves (a.k.a. TheoMechII?), GeneralRelativity?, and the Edge of Sanity. His research is in StringTheory.
In the fall of 2003, he gave a string theory lecture in East 110.
Be sure to ask him about his grandmother sometime.
In the grand tradition of OrrisonQuotes, Wiki brings you...SahakianQuotes.
Always talks about animals (squirrels, he hates squirrels...), junk, stuff, grandmothers, and alcohol. Someone should probably put up a conversion chart from Sahakian to English or vice versa.
Legend has it is that someone spiked his drink with vodka during lecture and he took sips without flinching and/or noticing.
Was Mudd's FacultyInResidence? in SontagDorm in '04-'05 and '05-'06. This is largely considered a GoodIdea--certainly by DavidLiao MUAHAHAHAHA >8D. ProfessorMartonosi has taken that position for '06-'07.
Convinces his research students not to do theoretical physics in graduate school. Accidentally convinced RachelZhang to join his lab by talking about squirrels for a semester. They bark at each other.
Does anyone else think he sounds kinda like Dr. Nick Riviera from TheSimpsons??
