TRAE,



I don't really like CAPTCHA, which is the name for the challenge system you suggested.  The big problem is poor accessibility for the visual impaired.  A smaller problem is false sense of security, considering that spammers are getting pretty good at defeating the technique.  The W3C has a useful note on the issue:

Oh, I forgot to mention that there was no question of taking Bellview or Sosoliso since both airlines were grounded by the Nigerian aviation authorities :-)



We took ADC from Abuja to Calabar via Lagos and ended up spending almost all day in Lagos while the airline was certified for safety (or so they say).  On the way back, we just drove.



Bottom line is that we got through all journeys safe and sound.  It was a lovely trip.
