Thanks!

You probably know this already, but in order to get the full text I *think* you're probably going to have to pay for it -- or have access to a good university library.

Because I am an old geiser going to college, I have access to a bunch of different college libraries. I have never used it, but I did watch one of my instructors use it, she projected it on the screen. So far I have been able to find scholarly resources for research papers on line, so I have not used it. I am not going to promise anything, but what college would that research paper be found in?

Go to the reference library section of your university library. Ask them how to fill out an "interlibrary loan" request. They will help you check to make sure whether your own university carries that journal -- and if they don't, they will show you how to request the article. In my day it was free to do so, but I can't vouch for current policies at all universities! Alternately, the reference librarian may be able to show you how to access the paper online without going through the loan process. In any case, the reference librarian is the place to start!

I can get in a ton of university libraries from my computer at home. I have a password and everything. I just have never used it.

Then go to this page, see if your library is on the list of member institutions, and see if you can log in to download the paper:

That is something that wants to charge. My college was not on the list. In fact, not much was on the list. I am going to go to my colege web site right now and check it out.

I can't find it at FSU, or UF. I thought it would of been at UF for sure.
