Lexis-Nexis: A Slightly Desperate Request

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

Apologies as this is very lazy, self-centered, self-entitled, cheap, nasty, etc. request, but my nexis.com password just dissappeared (from an organisation I used to belong to, they must have changed it, the bastards).

Anyway, as a poor and needy freelance/researcher I've come to rely on it for my writing quite a bit, so if any kind soul happens to know a password, would they be willing to share? I'd be happy to offer a huge, ILX-ish reward. My e-mail is p_isaacs @ fastmail.fm

Yrs, grovellingly.

Westlaw?

Just realised this request translates as roughly, "Give me 1000s o' yer $$$, now."

There were no references to Nigeria though.

one of my firm's biggest clients is Sami Abiola, the widow of the former president. and she really DID own a diamond mine in lagos!

I was thinking of changing my display name to "all my Lexis live in Nexis" but it got vetoed for being "totally not funny."

I love Lexis-Nexis, I wish I could use it at home or they had some home product for sale.
