Henry... thanks so much for your lightening fast reply to my post top you. I do hope you will contribute to this thread as the days and weeks unfold here. Very interesting what you say about the "back office event risk". ... a friend of mine was doing the partner accounts at Goldmann and their book keeping was very far behind the curve. Like they hadn't paid for their private jet charters for three months: millions and millions outstanding: they simply hadn't put in the chits. Something to light you up. The following is an actual radio conversation released by the US Chief of Naval Operations on 10 October 1995: NAVY: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the North to avoid a collision. CIVILIAN: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to South to avoid a collision. NAVY: This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course. CIVILIAN: No. I say again, you divert YOUR course. NAVY: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER ENTERPRISE, WE ARE A LARGE WARSHIP OF THE US NAVY. DIVERT YOUR COURSE NOW! CIVILIAN: This is a lighthouse. Your call.
