Tom Siebel was attacked by an elephant while on a photo safari back in August, but I actually didn’t hear about it until now:

What can I say? Damn, what a holiday…wish you a complete recovery!
Tom Siebel ended up in a wheelchair as a result of the incident. Given Siebel's formidable reputation, I can't help but wonder and assume that the elephant came off second-best out of the encounter…
Hi Paul,
Yeah, my second thought as well after reding that story. Hence my reference to Hydaspes rather than Gaugamela.
Cheers,
