Recent experiments on production of  \Lambda \Lambda} Hypernuclei have provoked renewed interest in extracting the  \Lambda  \Lambda interaction from the few events identified since the inception of this field forty years ago. Few-body calculations relating to this issue are reviewed, particularly with respect to the possibility that A=4 marks the onset of  \Lambda \Lambda binding to nuclei. The Nijmegen soft-core model potentials NSC97 qualitatively agree with the strength of the  \Lambda \Lambda  interaction deduced from the newly determined binding energy of  _{\Lambda \Lambda} ⁶He. Applying the extended NSC97 model to stranger nuclear systems suggests that A=6 marks the onset of \Xi  binding, with a particle stable  _{\Lambda \Xi} ⁶He, and that strange hadronic matter is robustly bound.
