Apropos of all the current chatter about collapsing credit markets, it’s entertaining to see that one of the two investment banks most exposed to subprime is already revisiting a prior credit crisis. Investment bank Lehman Brothers is recruiting staff to re-open its Russian office — yeah, the one that it abandoned after that region’s 1998 credit meltdown.

Hair of the credit criss that bit you, apparently.
