[Vo]:OFF TOPIC Another Tinsley story

[Jed Rothwell]

I decided to clean up and improve the EPRI NSF conference 
proceedings. I asked Ed if he has a better photo of some equipment 
shown on p. 13-14, an automated sample changer. He said you might 
find something like that in a museum. That brought to mind a story 
about our late friend Chris Tinsley . . .

Chris took his lady-friend Soo Seddon to the National Museum of 
Science and Industry in London. They went to the data processing 
department. He was giving an enthusiastic guided tour. "Let's look 
over at the hard disks. You'll be surprised how big they are . . ." 
They approached a glass cabinet with some disks in blue cabinets. He 
said, "Hey, that looks like . . . Hey, I designed that one!" Soo 
said, "they should stuff you and put you in there."
