Malleable

November 4th was truly a historic nite for the us O' a, tho it wasn't a world record day like October 30th.

Another Record Under Babu's Belt (Times of India; 10.31.08):

Bangalore: Habitual world record-maker S Ramesh Babu...set another one on Thursday - he played the fastest double frisbee rally (64 rallies) in a minute. This is his 35th world record. He is also a metallurgical scientist.

At St Thomas indoor auditorium, Jalahalli, he had to catch two frisbees, one before the other lands and keep the flow going. The feat was tricky due to risk of mid-air collision. He stood 40 feet away from his partner, B N Reddy, who launched the frisbees at 34 km per hour (?20 mph - that seems kinda fast, don't it?)
