The Onion A.V. Club | Arthur C. Clarke: "ACC: Well, I went to Australia to visit the Great Barrier Reef when I got involved in scuba diving, and on the way, I stopped at Colombo and met the local divers. They said, 'Why don't you come back after you've dealt with Australia?' And that's just what I did. I wrote my book on the Great Barrier Reef, and then I came back here with my late partner, Mark Wilson, to do a book on Sri Lanka. He married one of the local beauties, and we just sort of settled down here."

An Arthur C. Clarke interview. The word "partner" sure has changed over time.
