I happen to be the person in the picture. Professor Browne dragged me all the way to Everest Base Camp. (Kingsley, when can we stop proving our manhood? I'm soooo tired!)

Hah, Glenn...lucky you. Love Kingsley -- he is one of the most fun people to hang out with at any conference. Can you post about your experience?

After watching the 1984 remake of The Razor's Edge, I had it in my head to visit Nepal one day. Probably fortunately for me, it never became a consuming desire. I don't know if I would have had the consitution for mountain climbing even back then. That seems like a lot of work!

If you're actually interested in our Nepal trip, I wrote two newspaper columns about it.
They are at http://www.aspentimes.com/opinion/11314545-113/sherpas-everest-guide-kami
