I won't throw myself off the Colorado Street Bridge, but I do think the loss of this site is truly terrible--I relied on it often to solve old-restaurant mysteries, even as late as recent posts on 333 S. La Cienega. I'm not sure why it wasn't left up even if it couldn't be attended to--seems such a waste of what was clearly a huge amount of research. |
Unfortunately, I never visited that site (never even heard of it until your post), but sounds like it was a good resource. As for why it disappeared, could be that the webmaster could no longer afford the hosting fee (I assume there were a lot of pictures on the site, which chew up bandwith, so the costs may have been prohibitive). Hopefully, someone will revive it in the future.
