Diane,

Are you in San Diego? I would think the central library there would have the
same papers available as the librarian from the website's 'ask a
librarian'. It might be faster for you, but I always prefered the comfort of
my own home, less confrontational. To me going downtown is harder than
waiting a few days for the correspondance. Whatever works best. Go for it.
Regards,
Loretta
