My high technology tourist report from the trip: "Cambridge live from a 
Double Decker Bus" is at:
http://www.acs.org.au/president/1996/epubs/uk.htm

Anita Smith is visiting Cambridge mid December through to late January 
from Canberra, and has asked for some up-to-date tips on what to see.

Anita is an information technology lawyer working on business and legal 
models for electronic commerce projects. Her first book, published this 
year, is "The Millennium Bomb Disposal Kit: Year 2000 Legal and 
Management Success Strategies" and she is working on a second book, 
"Lex Cybertoria: Cyberspace Law".

Suggestions for what to see in Cambridge to: Anita_Smith@advantra.com.au
