<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I toured your facility around 1980 (?) with music video producer Kim Friedman. I think he was doing a Chaka Kawn (?) post there. I'll never forget seeing the Squeeze Zoom in action, and the roar of fans to keep it cool, if I remember correctly. I was working for NBC at the time and we only had MKII DVE's and some Quantel 5000's.</font></div>

<div>In an earlier life I worked at a company in Hollywood, (Mobile Video Systems) that had an early generation Squeezoom. They made a good living correcting All In The Family and the 30:00 syndicated version of Carol Burnett, among others. The device was able to make good looking video appear as though you smeared Vaseline on your eyes. </div>
