(And he's not a doctor yet... hi andy! :-) To get a CGP memo you should either contact him or the School Librarian at the following address (note that this is different from the main library). Computational Geometry Project School of Information Systems University of East Anglia Norwich, Norfolk NR4 7TJ United Kingdom Or telephone the university on [44] 603 56161 and ask. Hope this helps.
