My dad (the late Dr. Manuel Dias) was his first cousin, younger by just a year, and they were hostel-mates in Wadia College Poona.
Fleming was inventing even then. He had devised an alarm clock that would first ring, then start giving you gentle electric shocks to coax you to wake up! I used to love to listen to their stories of college life in Poona. They made it sound so romantic!
