Thomas - interesting. Thanks M

Relevant extract:

Then, in 1967, Everett supervised the last months of the building of the new submarine Onyx, its trials and introduction into service. He also chose the boat’s motto, “Taurus Excreta Cerebrum Vincit” (Bullshit Baffles Brains.)

Comparison here:

Gilmour always derived quiet amusement when recalling the SBS motto "Excreta Tauri Astutos Frustrantur" (Bullshit Baffles Brains).

Hoping folks do not mind this diversion from the thread - hopefully of interest
