"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Untitled CommentWhilst there are no 'dangerous animals', baboons will relieve you of any food left in unattended packs. I was once robbed of most of my food on one trip when I left a pack to do some flyfishing. Thankfully they decided to let me keep my whisky, a few tins and a packet of spicy atcha rice that they didn't fancy.

Untitled CommentThere was once an incident prior to 1990 when someone stepped on a landmine near skeleton pass. I have not heard of any other incident since then.
