Note that on my old webpage, I offer just this as a service:

http://www.toppoint.de/~joe/infoserv.html

will send an e-mail to me, and I will have a look at my database which is basically an ongoing futile effort to get all Glorantha indexed.

Quite often, the answer may be "I haven't done that, yet", though, or some vague "I think I saw that in ...".

Paraphrasing and short quotations are in order, and quite often that's all the out-of-print material offers.

Of course, no guarantee can be given how "gospel" this will be.
