So Gary I guess you need to add Sean to the list of those you cited.
I could, Ernie. We could also throw in Bob Burd, Jim (Sierragator, the only known Whitney triple), Laura, and a few other uber-hikers, but I just named the Whitney Usual Suspects, so to speak - folks that came to mind who have done multiple impressive ascents of Whitney in the last couple of years. Bob P's all over the place and doesn't hit Whitney all that often, but he did a MR double a while back, and then there was that dead-of-winter MT/switchbacks ascent in 2011 that got everyone's attention - snowiest winter on record, if I remember right. I recall watching his SPOT and thinking, "This can't be right - he's moving way too fast for those conditions and the weight he's carrying!"
Hope you're well, my friend!
