Met Arthur C. Clarke in 1997 in his house near Colombo, Sri Lanka... A friend of my dad had organised the meeting...when we arrived Mr Clarke was sitting in his office watching one of the first Mars rover landings live on CNN..a moment and coincidence which i was only able to understand many years later...
