I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet Houdini (though this is not possible, unless he returns on Oct 31st as he promised he would if he could make the most impossible escape)I would like to meet Thomas Edison (again not possible)I'd like to meet myself in a previous lifetime. The East India Company introduced the Pattern 1853 Enfield rifle. Its cartridges were covered by greased membrane that, apparently, had to be cut by the teeth before loading. There was a rumour that this membrane was greased by cow or pig fat, which was offensive to Hindu as well as Muslim soldiers. The Rumour was found to be TRUE.General George Anson, Commander in Chief in India, reacted by saying, 'I'll never give in to their beastly prejudices.' He refused to compromise.Then, on March 29, 1857, at Barrackpore near Kolkata, Mangal Pandey started an open mutiny, inviting his comrades to join him.The Rising had begun. Mangal Pandey was the First Freedom Fighter & Martyr for India.
