Files and dbases

The dbase is:

The files are in:

Z:\Crunchbase\CrunchbaseData

To do

1. Download the data
2. Extract top 5 lines
3. Build table specs
4. Import the data

Issue importing events.csv. Line count does not match import count. Also typos in data for start_time and end_time which created import errors with time datatype. Switched to varchar. Issue importing organizations.csv. Line count is 515496 but on import got 515491. Last 4 lines in file are chinese characters which might affect import.
