As the other responses to this post have pointed out, it's no perfect
solution, but I saw on the news this AM that in California, you can now
take a little class and for $10 get a certificate that will allow one to
purchase pepper spray.

I imagine that more information could be had from women's self-defense
groups, stores that sell the stuff, or the local police.
