"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."

Crikey!That is quite the tale. I'm interested, what had the volcanic activity been like up to when you climbed? For example, had Ubinas been dormant for a few months or were you trying to get a climb in between regular eruptive episodes?

Re: Crikey!Yes, at the time it had been quiet since May 2006, about 1.5 years.
