Though on crutches with the thigh fracture he suffered when thrown in Tibet by a half-wild pony, he could reminisce about his native diet of yak butter and yak meat cooked over fires of yak dung; his recorded broadcast from the forbidden Tibetan capital (carried to India by yak), and his gifts to Tibet's 15-year-old Dalai Lama (a gold & silver Siamese tiger skull, an alarm clock, a raincoat...
