    Hi all -
    We have had good success finding sources for very specific media inquiries via Knowledge Net.  Here is one from a Wall St Journal reporter that is seeking sources by the end of this week (but early responses tend to have a better chance of being used):

    I'm writing a story for the Mansion section of The Journal that looks at high-end homes built in the '70s. Some perceive the '70s to be kind of a lost decade in design, with the popcorn ceilings and shag carpeting, but I'd love to find some 70s devotees who still appreciate the period's architecture. Are there any well-regarded architects who did their best work in the 70s? Any historical societies or clubs that study homes of the era?


    Please contact the reporter directly and just copy me (sfrank@aia.org) so I can track coverage:
