Let M be a compact 2-manifold (smooth, not assigned an orientation, and not necessarily connected) and let K:M 7 → IR4 be a smooth embedding of M in IR4. Such a K will be referred to, in this paper, as a knotted surface, or 2-knot. (While there are also highly non-trivial questions concerning smoot
