I have found telephone directories very useful for this.
Or 411, now that 626.4400 is gone.

In the first place, the notion that the exhibit was imminently
going away was advanced as a question, not as a statement
of truth. I saw the listing in the Weekend section of the Post
and it mentioned nothing about the exhibit leaving.

They have the usual info about requiring free tickets to
see it, but that was all. They list two numbers just to
confuse matters more: 202.786.2122 appears right after the
mention of tickets. Then, after the hours of operation is
the number 202.357.2700..

nuff said.
