(That limestone is wonderful.) He can't have got much out of the experience, but he didn't hesitate for a minute when I asked him if he'd like to go out. He even loaned me a pair of his shoes—though they were several sizes too small for me, even by climbing-shoe standards (I think 38 when I usually wear 41)—that pain is one of my main memories of the experience! | |

| Jan 30, 2021 at 17:58 | comment | added | LSpice | I went rock climbing with Labesse at Luminy a few years ago. I am no great rock climber, but still it was impressive to see how vastly better a climber was this mathematician some decades my senior. | |
