This paper is based on a talk given by A R Liddle at the PASCOS/TEXAS meetingin December 1992, and will appear in the proceedings. The central result isthat all known models of inflation which end in a first order phase transitioncan be ruled out by combining galaxy surveys at a few tens of Mpc with the COBEdata (including the effect of gravitational waves). This conclusion is based onthe work described in A R Liddle and D H Lyth, Phys Lett B 291 (1992) 391.Comment: 8 pages 2 Figures, available from A R Liddle LAN-TH-93-02 `replaced' because original file corrupted in transi
