While unsuccessfully looking for fresh compressed yeast in the San Diego area, I was referred to nybakers.com, a local mail-order supplier of flours and related bread-making ingredients.

After procrastinating, then finally jumping in with both feet, I ordered several of the various flours from his website. Rather than paying the shipping costs, Stan asked if I'd like to pick up the order, which I did near his home Poway (closer to me than his warehouse).
I ordered on 9/21/10:
- GM Purasnow Cake Flour
- KA Queen Guinevere Cake Flour
- Sperry Extra Fancy Durum Patent Flour
- NYB FlourPantry - Artisan
- Sel Gris de Guérande. (Salt)
- Red Star Fresh Compressed Yeast
Plus some other flours I ordered over the phone that I don't have a list at hand for right now.
When I picked up my order Stan and I talked quite a bit and he gave me lots of tips. I'll post those later. (Thanks, Stan!)
Here are my new flours (organized by protein percentage):
