How Stands Collapse I

Abstract
In this volume in honor of GianCarlo Ghirardi, I discuss my involvement with ideas of dynamical collapse of the state vector. 10 problems are introduced, 9 of which were seen following my initial work. 4 of these problems had a resolution in GianCarlo Ghirardi, Alberto Rimini and Tullio Weber's Spontaneous Localization (SL) model (which added 1 more problem). This stimulated a (somewhat different) resolution of these 5 problems in the Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) model, in which I combined my initial work with SL. In an upcoming volume in honor of Abner Shimony I shall discuss the status of the 5 remaining post-CSL problems.
