Dear Spike: I’m not sure if you’re still involved with Hangar56 Media, but if so, you have remnant money that awaits. I’m a LA Times subscriber who happened to be reading Nov. 22nd’s paper and randomly ran across a full-page public listing notice (think fine print of an entire page) with just names of companies and amounts of abandoned money owed to each by the City of Burbank. Bored eating lunch, I treated it as a WordFinder puzzle and located/circled all the 4-figure amounts, just for the hell of it. Hangar56 Media has $1120.00 owed to it.
This may be too small an amount to chase, but if not, ring the Burbank City Treasurer at 818 238 5880 by 45 days from Nov. 22 (evidently the first day they published this public notice listing). If you want a copy of the page, and your circled location on it, please email me and I’ll reply with an image.
By the way, I’m a fan of all things Seinfeld.
