Wexis bonus
The Jastrow Bonus (aka Jastrow Jackpot, closely related to the Frank Find) is one of those familiar staples we have all grown to love. Lately, as I've been using less Jastrow and more Lexis/Westlaw, I've had a curious thing happen: In the course of a (usually not so fruitful) search, usually of Law Review articles, for something I am working on, I run into something interesting that I want to read and would never have found otherwise.
For example, I ran into a student note by a high school classmate at a different school who wrote on something I had briefly toyed with working on over the summer.
The mechanism of these "bonuses" is different than with Jastrow, but I think it deserves to be canonized anyway. I just need an alliterative name...
