A San Diego history buff is curious about the word stingaree. This slang term once referred to part of the city's red-light district, and remains the name of a stylish downtown restaurant and nightclub in the city's Gaslamp district. Grant illuminates the risque origin of this unusual word. This is part of a complete episode.
