You might contact the Los Angeles Times. From time to time they do excellent
articles on the La Brea pits and for about $6.00 they will dredge up a good one
for you and fax it to you! Ask for their 'research' service.
I did this recently regarding a reference to a little known acronym for a CA
state agency which administers home loans. They reccommended an article called
"25 Ways to Turn $10,000 into A House". Sounded interesting so I gave them my
credit card number and an hour later I had a fax with the whole story. I love
it! Sorta depends on what value you place on your time, though. A retiree with
nothing but time on his hands would consider this a frivolous waste of money.
Diff'rent storks…..as the ornithologists say.
