Deb and list,
This won't provide immediate help for Deb's problem, but I thought you all
might be interested. A petition drive is underway to convice APA to make
its journals available on the internet for free. See
http://www.mentalhealth-madison.com/Documents/APA_petition_letter.htm for
information.
