As revealed by the "The IUCr 99 Abstracts Team"
(Kenneth Shankland, Chick Wilson & Tony Csoka)
on the Rietveld mailing list (to announce the
ability to search the IUCr 99 abstracts at:
http://glabs.nd.rl.ac.uk )
There is a top class UNOFFICIAL Glasgow 99 guide
for IUCr99 (authored by locals with inside knowledge) at:
http://www.redfoot.force9.co.uk/iucr/
This includes maps, food, off licences, pubs, FAQ and the
all important "disclaimers".
The FAQ presently Includes:
"Where do I go clubbing in Glasgow?"
"Where do I go to avoid crystallographers?"
"Where do I get late-night fast food?"
"Where am I most likely to 'bump into' crystallographers?"
The section on "off licences" (cheap booze outlets) includes
the "V-for-M Rating"
V-for-M = {(% alcohol content) / (price in pence)} x 100
"The higher the V-for-M rating, the more alcohol you get
for your money - simple!"
Other quality information of this type abounds in the
above webpage.
