I'm suprised that no one found this article interesting enough to reply... or was it old news?

I found it interesting but don't really have much to add. Certainly fears of a Soviet circumlunar attempt played a big part in the decision to launch Apollo 8 as a lunar orbit mission.

I found the podsadka concept interesting, unmanned heavy lift with crew launched on safer smaller man rater vehicle.<br /><br />Now where have I seen that idea recently... <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" />
