[edit] Facts on Ken Schaffer Bio

I've cleaned up the second paragraph of the bio. Grammar and info/facts.

My information comes from first hand personal knowledge, not from a third party source or article.

The facts there are reasonably correct at this point.

The price quoted is approximately correct for some of the microphones sold.

Items questionable or unclear: - not sure he worked as a publicist for Jerry Garcia. - unclear what he sold to NASA or if they used any of his designs/inventions that came from the wireless microphone/wireless guitar system.

- I added refs re El Topo, which he arranged to be exhibited at midnight at the Elgin Cinema in New York, then introduced to Lennon.

First hand knowledge direct from (now author) Lindsay Maracotta, Lennon's personal assistant at the time.

- I removed Jerry Garcia publicist ref. He worked with Garcia, but on a side project album, "Hooteroll" only.
