What are the best Crags out there where you can reliablalbly go alone and find partners?

The best in my expirence has been Yosemite/tuolumne... I have tried J tree and Red Rocks but it hasnt been nearly as easy.

This might be a good listing for people who work the funny schedule and dont mind harrassing strangers in parking lots.

Oh and not limit just to the west.

Squamish, Indian Creek, RRG, Potrero. I was going to say Maple Canyon, but after sitting beneath my proj at Pipe Dream for three hours with nobody showing up to climb with, I'm not so sure anymore.

Indian Creek and the Gunks. I'd say the gunks is actually by far the easiest though.

The Gunks are easy to find a partner... just be smart with your pickings. A friend set me up with one guy who "leads 5.8" come to find out he didn't know how to build a gear anchor, never mind lead anywhere near 5.8. I was okay with taking the sharp end that day.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
