On Manuel

Manuel and I have known each other, since we started our Physics studies at the Complutense University. In our course,at the beginning of the career there were 600 students, all in one auditorium attending the same lectures. Among so many colleagues it takes some time before you recognize them, before you establish your preferred relations and make friends. I would say that although we knew each other since the first course, we became friends two years after. We shared our physics interest and, at the end of the studies, also our leisure time. (Author)
