All the best. While at it can we give you a skunkworks flag to ptich atop the Mountain ?

Yeah so next week I leave for Mt. Everest for the next 60 days, been preparing for past two years [quietly of course]. Huge challenge both physically and mentally and actually as @Wash puts it, one of the things I want to show is techies can still conquer away from gadgets and code.
I will be making a "More official" mention on this list as I will be going dark for about for days working on last minute logistics, checking our gear and satellite equipment. I will tell more around Thursday/Friday.
Thanks @Wash

When they say programmers don't have a life, what do they normally mean? One skunk appears to be hell bent on proving them wrong! Steve Obbayi is going for the ultimate in mountain climbing - his eyes set in scaling Mt. Everest next month. He's already conquered Mt. Kenya and Mt. Kilimanjaro. Isn't that actually 'having a life '?? Wishing you all the best in this pro-venture, Steve. One your shoulders is the Kenyan flag, and the lives of the Kenyan coders.
