Frankly I'm glad someone is willing to do so. It's not wholesale
ripping off - would it be wrong to take a library book and make copies
of a few pages to share with people? Quite different than copying it
and putting it in your own publication for sale... regardless of what
he said in the past I'm glad that he's offering such things. This
particular article I'm not completely anxious to read, but I've read
something he sent in the past and glad he sent it. And I certainly
don't think we're going to be hunted down for requesting a copy. When
it comes down to it, I'm not going to buy a publication for just one
article, I'd either go to the library and find it for free anyways or
remain ignorant of its contents.
