Talk of SLSS brings on a "senior moment" of my own. I can recall where and when, presumably around the time it was announced, I heard about SLSS: in a tall building on Yakobu Gowon Street, Lagos in September 1968 - while the Nigerian Civil war - which had something to do with my being there - working with a company that has just reported record profits! - was raging in another part of the country, the part where my co-workers had been before the war.
