Hey Werner, if you see those guys, say hi.
Great picture, but I need a side by side to tell Bachar and Worral apart.

Werner,
I think that is Worral, not Bachar.

Peter,
I think you are right, it is Worral. I remember meeting him at the cafe in 1976 and we both looked at each other thinking we had met before. After talking with him for a bit we figured out that we both lived on Arenas Street in La Jolla about a block apart when we were kids. He was a few years older so we didn't really hang out then. Was a bizarre coincidence.

Hate to be pedantic, but in formal address it is "Lightning Slings Williams."
Eric Beck chided Steve for climbing an aid pitch so slowly--probably La Escuela Direct (A4, 1969). Steve looked down and responded: "Lightning slings Williams here." The shortened name stuck.
Someone told me something about Steve recently. Maybe Jorge. It would be good to here from Steve.
