Pasadena.  There is a good surplus store will interesting junk.
Most of it is scientific/engineering stuff associated with CalTech.
Some computer stuff, but not a lot.
I was searching for their name on the web (C&H Sales) and found this interesting
directory of Electronic Surplus Stores under "Things to Do in Los Angeles".

Now I need to look for a similar page for Chicago :-)

I remember I flew into LAX(i think)... LAX is connected to the nearest 
freeway via a longish branch.
So I came out of LAX, "Turned Right" (toward the ocean- west) at the 
branch - went a distance, "Turned
left) (south) on some street - and found on the right hand side a very 
"Weirdstuff" like place?
That same street continues and becomes another freeway that I had to 
take to get to my work-site in Compton.

Anyone know where I was?


Any other electronics-junkyard type places in LA?  It has just occurred 
to me that LA is only 3 hours
away...Road Trip!  :^)
