My only excuse for being on this Fine Jury, in this Fine Company of Heroes is because I am very experienced.
Except that experience has never been less valued.
Then there's my intense, adulterous love affair with Advertising, since earliest days at SSC&B LINTAS, one-time house agency of Unilever (LINTAS: Lever International Advertising Service). A world-leading Agency no-one but me can remember. Then again, I did represent Portugal for 20 years or so, on the EPICA Jury.
