An enduring relationship developed between the University of Uppsala, Sweden, and the University of Illinois, Chicago, as a result of the author’s two opportunities to study and lecture in Uppsala through the auspices of the Fulbright Scholarship Awards, first at the invitation of Professor Tord Skoog in 1960, and then by Professor Valdemar Skoog in 2003. Some anecdotes and observations related to these dates and the 43-year interval are presented.
