drop by our website and goto the NCAC page. There may be something
there, or possible e-ddress to ask?

As for tourist info the most important bit is: DON'T carry your Scout
knife onto Federal property...and especially don't carry it in your
pocket, back-pack, fanny-pack, or purse. Next, the Smithsonian Museum of
Natural History is big (dinosaurs and the Hope Diamond). In the basement
of the Commerce Dept. is/usedtobe a small aquarium. Tours of the Library
of Congress are at 11 and 1 if memory serves and the tour is the only way
under-18s get in these days...try their website: www.loc.gov Also, do
call the DC Convention and Visitors Bureau for literature. Now to Feb 99
ought to be enough time to get it in the mail. ;)
