    Dihedral Wall, 1990
The shadow of the setting sun is creeping up the wall, as I aid up more left facing cracks. I remember this moment clearly, the colors, silence and fantastic exposure. Peter, today a professor of mathematics at the University of Copenhagen, sits motionless at the belay, engrossed in a complex paper of quantum physics. Once when I asked him about his studies, he sighed, knowing that I, a lowly college dodger, would benefit little from a throrough answer. After one of Peters signature pauses, he finally disclosed it was related to the question why the big lumps in a granola jar always floats on top. I was left even more puzzled than before.
