On 20 June, we organized a very successful IEEE Distinguished Lecture at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Gaithersburg, MD, with Dr. Mason Williams as our speaker. The topic of the lecture was
"Beyond the Limits of Magnetic Recording: an Itinerant Magnetician Looks at
Hysterical Loops". There were around 30 attendees for the event.

Forward a paragraph (or two), a picture, a reference to an interesting article or something inventive or newsworthy (in your opinion) to me at r.dee@ieee.org so we can include in the next MagSoc newsletter.
