To start off, I am incredibly lucky. I was born to a privileged family in Lahore, Pakistan. I attended the best schools around (Yes, a proud Aitchisonian!) and was exposed [...]

Yet another Aitchisonian

The reasons for including this person are not clear to me. On the one hand, he is not as clearly an Anti-Aitchisonian as some of the others chronicled here, yet, he is also not of the other camp.
