This was something we all craved when we all craved when we are young. Back in the 1950s, when H.P.S.Ahluwalia and I were boys living in the Doon Valley, there was no TV, no Internet. The only way in which you could get a real 'high' was through physical adventure-climbing mountains, sailing the high seas, exploring unknown territory...when I heard that he had climbed Everest, I was delighted but not surprised; I knew he is always had it in him to go to the very top. He has conquered other Everest too including the physical disability that he has lived with for many years............. E187334
