The publications listed below are available in PDF format for any EA member who wants to have them. All that I need is a <Private Message> giving me an email address that accepts attachments (the EA server does not) and the “EU”number for each article you want to have. I’ve given them numbers so that you don’t need to type out full titles. I look forward to sending them to you and hope to have your responses to the articles to help guide future research
