	abstract = {The job I found most  difficult during my  tenure as President of this  Sociery,was  writing  tomembers  whose  abstracts  had not  been accepted  for  the  conference.  The  irony  is, that  a term  as President  carries  with  it  the  implicit  responsibility  of presenting  a paper  that does  nut  go  through  a selection  process.  Even  more  ironical  is  that  in  1976, the  incumbent  President  Alan  Kirton  noted  in  his  annual report  to the AGM,  the consensus  of the management  committee  was that  in  future  the Presidential  address  should  be an  optional  rather than  an  obligatory  feature  of the  conference. },
