Not sure if interviewing ppl is in your agenda, but if it is, you might want to talk to a (reputable) Private Investigator. My local 2600 group obtained some valuable hits from PI's, including public domain info sites they access for useful ppl information. Good luck.

All, I'm doing an article my company's newsletter on Social Engineering / Identity Theft. I want to demonstrate how easy it is to get information on the web about an individual. We know name/address/phone but one can also get birthdate (m/yr), how much they paid for their house, marriage/divorce etc. Do you have any favorite sites that offer public domain info about individuals? I just came across www.zabasearch.com which was interesting as I'd not seen the birth month and year that readily available. This also is changing the questions our Help Desks asks an employee if they want their password reset. Thanks, Jeff
