The Storage Guru

I met Carlo for the first time in Bangalore, almost two years back, when he had come down to speak about 3510 storage. He is one of those Instructors in APAC, who has his breakfast from one part of the globe and end up having his dinner the same day on another part on Earth, quite some distance apart . He is back again in India, this time to deliver a series of training program on Storages, which is concluding tomorrow and he’s flying back to Germany via Tokyo.

If at all I could figure out something common in Carlo and me, it’s the recurring throat problem . On my first rendezvous with Carlos in November 2005 in Bangalore, he was literally whispering after his class. And now a days when I find myself in a similar situation, it reminds me of Carlo. His advice to me is to have a cup of water ready on the table at all points of time during the speech. It’s quite a handy tip, but very often neglected. But of late, I have started to make it a point of have plenty of water during the speech. It has given me some positive results of course.

I had a short conversation with David Goldsmith on the phone some time back. He is all set for a 545 mile ride on his bicycle from San Francisco to Los Angeles for a noble cause. Please join me in wishing him good luck in this endeavour. You may read more about this and convey your wishes directly to David by clicking this link.
