Abstract :
Our objectives are to promote technical progress and to collect and distribute information. Your committees are working. Chapter programs are under way. The inputs needed to continue our mission successfully into the future are good papers, for Chapter meetings, for March IRE, for Wescon, and for our own PGPT National Symposiums. to isolate and prepare valuable papers may take slightly longer to clear legal, patent, and security approvals, but the rewards of the extra effort and the addLtional time are undoubtedly beneficial to the authors as well as to our industry. As with many worthwhile things, we Just have to start earlier and work a little harder. I would like to encourage each of our members to consciously seek to advance his own professional development by studying, attending meetings, writing and speaking. And supplementing this, seek to aid others by directly and persistently encouraging them to speak and write. This is a regenerative process, a mutual way to promote technical progress. It benefits us and it benefits our assooiates.
