Introduction by Jim Koch -
Now let me introduce our next speaker.  Our next speaker has been a part of this industry for forty years now.  Finn Jorgenson was born in Denmark (appropriately for today) in 1931.  He received his master of science degree in 1955 from the technical university of Copenhagen.  He has worked in this industry for forty years and that experience includes work with DataTape, Memorex, and Applied Magnetics.  He now serves as a lecture and as a consultant to many equipment manufacturers and to the United States Navy.  He has written several papers and a book "The Complete Handbook Of Magnetic Recording" published by McGraw Hill, which is in its fourth edition, and that usually means it sells well.  Finn it is a delight to have you here today and to tell us about the early history of this wonderful industry.  Thank you.
