Robert: somewhere around the house I have  an old BOA savings  account
bankbook (Pasadena branch) dated 1934 in the amount of  $5.34.  it  originates
from a school savings program the bank organized back then to educate children
in the magic of compound interest.  How do I go about redeeming my fortune,
which now should amount to billions considering the 67 years of compound
interest. Please make it happen. I promise to donate all to charity.
