3:15 EPL Hello! Can I help you?
3:15 me hello!
3:15 me did you have an online version of your newspaper for edmonton?
3:15 me preferably one that does back at least several months
3:15 me goes*
3:16 EPL Which newspaper are you interested in? And, how far back do you have to go?
3:16 me im not honestly sure which newspapers there are, im not from edmonton is why
3:16 me 4-5 months back is preferable
3:17 me any and all newspapers is preferable
3:18 EPL There are several daily Edmonton newspapers and some that are released only several times a month. Depending on what type of information you are looking for; The Edmonton Journal and The Edmonton Sun are the two biggest papers.
3:19 me are both of them online? id like to read them both archived if thats possible
3:19 EPL They both have websites. The Edmonton Journal can be found at http://www.edmontonjournal.com/index.html
3:20 EPL The Edmonton Sun can be found at http://www.edmontonsun.com/home.
3:20 me thank you very much
3:21 EPL The information you are looking for may or may not have been posted online to these websites.
3:21 me one more thing though
3:21 me how well do you know local events around there?
3:21 EPL Let me know if you need help locating any further information
3:21 EPL Fairly well....
3:21 me can you remember stuff from several months back?
3:21 me its a span of 4-2 months ago
3:22 EPL I can try. I am an Information Ninja, after all
3:22 me have there been any dissapearances in that area that you can remember? >.>
3:22 EPL Are we speaking about Edmonton?
3:22 me yeah, edmonton canada
3:23 EPL I can't recall anything. But your BEST online resource for that information is here: http://www.albertamissingpersons.ca/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=76
3:23 EPL This is the Alberta Missing Persons online site; they partner with the various police organizations.
3:24 me ....thay have a website for that? thats perfect :>
3:24 EPL Yes! It has all of the information. You can click on any name for a detailed description of the person and the circumstances of their disapperance.
3:26 me  this is great
3:26 EPL I'm glad to have helped!
3:26 me do you happen to know a person called izu or izumi per chance btw?
3:27 me japanese woman
3:27 me just perchance, you never know
3:27 EPL No, sorry. But you're right - it never hurts to try.
3:28 me hmm, about how large is edmonton, like are there sections of it?
3:28 me like my town is divided into NSEW and center
3:29 EPL Edmonton is a very large city. Edmonton and surrounding area has a population of over 1 million people.
3:29 me mmmm
3:30 EPL There are many different neighbourhoods and the city can broadly be referred to in terms of direction (i.e. North Edmonton, West Edmonton, etc.)
3:31 me do the sections have a main office i could contact for stories like that?
3:33 EPL No, these sections aren't really offical. If you are looking for missing persons, I would recommend looking at the Alberta Missing Persons website. It has links to other organizations such as the Edmonton Police Service for more information.
3:33 EPL You could also try contacting the Edmonton Sun or Edmonton Journal for more information about a story.
3:34 me i plan to, im just getting all the sources i can to see if one of them has matched
3:34 me do you know anywhere else i would contact to try to find a missing person?
3:34 EPL Or, if you wanted to contact the community leagues for each Edmonton neighbourhood. Or, you could try and contact the MLA's office for each electoral district.
3:35 EPL However, I think that the best place for information about a missing person would be the police.
3:35 me i plan to contact the police too to see if they have any information
3:36 me do you know an estimate perhaps of how many computer or electronics stores there are? or something like that
3:37 EPL The police would be a great place to look for other resources on missing persons.
3:37 EPL Are you speaking of electronic stores in Edmonton?
3:37 me electronic or computer stores
3:39 me or if theres any way to check their employment history
3:40 EPL I could try and find for you (the number of stores). But their employment history is confidential.
3:41 me if i were to call the police or the company would they be able to tell me their employment history or if a certain person or description worked there?
3:42 EPL The police would be your best resource for this information.
3:42 me alright, that should be all
3:42 me thank you very much for your help ^^
3:42 EPL You're welcome. Have a great day!
3:43 me you too
3:43 EPL Bye!
3:44 me bye~
