I don't think so.... Also the magazine is extremely difficult to find 
sometimes is smaller cities and subscriptions are pricey.  So I offer from 
that point.  The other point is equally valid.....  I view it as the fact 
that if it's one article I don't mind much because it's similar to me going 
to the library and photocopied the article out of a mag... for research or 
to use at home if it's reserved.  If you wanted me to do the whole then I'd 
have to refuse.  Technically it is a minor violation of copyright but one 
that is more than often excused.
         Morgan does have a good point.  And I'm happy to cull subjects 
from the out of print ones for people.... (I have Spin-off from like 1988) 
so I feel like I'm a lending library or a research library.  I no longer 
lend out but I will let you copy for your own personal use.

And Morgan's right - they have really cool info in it but then they always 
do....
