It`s all a lot of crap! (me venting here). All
thgis paleo info should be available to the public,..and at an affordable price!
J of vert. Pal. and especially Nature magazine should be available on the
internet at least for a muich reduced subscription, what does it cost them to
put it on the internet?? And what about the Library of Congress, our taxes are
paying for what?? I guess I`m being nieve (as usual), but I expected on getting
on the internet to have access to much of this info. I`m sadly dissappointed. I
have just moved up to the sticks, and can no longer find ANYTHING I want. I
ordered "beginnings of birds" by interlibrary loan, and was surprised
to actually get it 5 months later! I just requested (2 weeks ago), papers that I
need to investigate my some of my ideas, when will I get them? Who knows. I`ve
been out of toutch with this field for almost 20 years, and the only way to get
better informed seems to be to buy books (and we all know that periodicals ar
more up to date). I`ve said it before, if we want a better informed public, we
had better make sure the resources are at least available!.......(just me
venting).
