One of the things Lori always appreciated was when I created a game out of thin air, so this is sort of a tribute.
Scavenger Hunt Rules
Here's the idea: I post something that you have to find on the internet, then you respond with where you found it and something you want others to find. No duplication of answers, so speed is essential. You can't ask for others to seek anything unless you know there are at least two of them to find (so you'll have to do a little work before you post a reply). The items have to actually exist on the net at the time people start seeking them - no cheating, guys. The things sought should be available without restrictions like memberships and on sites that you wouldn't mind your boss knowing you went there. I haven't figured out how the game ends - I expect people will grow tired of it quickly - and there should probably be some sort of ranking of difficulty. So here's three things to start:
1) Easy - positive review of the film "Gigli."
2) Hard - photo of a woman with knee-length (or longer) red hair. No photoshopping.
3) Excruciating - yeast strain for sale that ferments both maltose and lactose.

I'd have thought a positive review of Gigli would be the hardest of these to find.
DON'T CLICK ON THE FUTURISTICS LINK!
damn steve, way to throw down the guantlet.
i assume the yeast question is for me.
i know all ale yeasts will ferment maltose, but not lactose.
i am thinking the answer is in one of those weirdo belgian lambics you love so much.
i assume a wild yeast a bee might carry does not count as you stated "for sale"
... but wait... bees are for sale.
...mmmmm
Wait, it's a trick question -- I'll bet exposure to Gigli ferments both maltose and lactose.
For the excruciating question:
Check this reference . . . .

First, that site does NOT name a strain of yeast that meets the requirement. Also, it has to be a strain that one can purchase. No amount of searching online will give the answer.
