		| Abstract: | 
		From my perspective of four decades of hindsight, diverse personal 
 experiences in the initial years of Victor Blanco's directorship became 
 lessons upon which I've gratefully drawn throughout my career.  These years 
 spanned a period of remarkable growth of CTIO's technical and scientific 
 impact during exceptionally challenging times for Chile and Chileans. |
