These links may help. One of the things I'm doing in school right now is quantifying and comparing the properties of different building materials so I am constantly trying to find good sources of info. The links above were the first three sites that came up on Google when I typed in "thermal mass properties."

Can anybody post a table that compares the thermal mass potential of cob versus concrete and other materials?
