This journal is mostly public because most of it contains poetry, quotations, pictures, jokes, videos, and news (medical and otherwise). If you like what you see, you are welcome to drop by, anytime. I update frequently.
It feels like cheating when I remember all the trawling through trade directories, faxing and phoning around I had to do in the export sourcing research job I had many years ago before the internet was invented.
Having said that, I did get to speak to a lot of people, so it was quite fun. One job I had was to track down the original manufacturers of all the plates and silverware on the ocean liner Queen Mary, or find existing companies who could reproduce them. I had a fun time talking to museum curators in Stoke-on-Trent about that one.

If you don't mind me asking--how did you manage to find out?

And that's not cheating, that's using available reference sources!
Thanks again :)
